Jacobs ready to step into starring role for Owasso

It’s no wonder Isaiah Jacobs looks up to his older brother, Alabama running back Josh Jacobs.

Isaiah Jacobs (5-10, 195 pounds), a 2020 tailback prospect and Arkansas recruiting target from Owasso, Okla., was in Northwest Arkansas this weekend for the Southwest Elite Classic 7-on-7 tournament, and beamed with pride when his brother's name was brought up.

Josh Jacobs, who rushed eight times for 49 yards in a 41-9 win over visiting Arkansas last season, has carried the ball 132 times for 848 yards and caught 28 passes for 334 yards in his two years in a crowded Crimson Tide backfield.
