One of the real bright spots of the second half of Louisville’s 2020 football season has been the emergence, our of seemingly nowhere, of Jalen Mitchell at the running back spot.
Now the redshirt freshman has some hardware to show for it.
University of Louisville redshirt freshman running back Jalen Mitchell was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Rookie of the Week, the league announced on Monday.
Mitchell had a career day, carrying 20 times for 168 yards in the 45-21 win over Wake Forest, the eighth-most ever by a Louisville freshman.
