Scout.com Player Evaluation:
Is still learning the cornerback position, but is a tremendous athlete. Has primarily been a running back, but has excellent, 4.3 speed and has good size for a corner. Can catch the ball well, a byproduct of his running back experience.


Biography:
Bolden finished his junior season with around 700 yards rushing and 6 touchdowns despite missing four games with a sprained right ankle.

Final senior (12-2) stats: 2003 yards rushing and 26 touchdowns. Bolden had over 2500 total offensive yards. Defensively, he had 80 tackles, two blocked punts and one interception.

He reports a 2.5 GPA and is about 40 points short on his SAT. Bolden took his SAT on Dec. 2 and is trying to improve his 2.5 core GPA. "I'm taking some online classes right now to improve my grades," Bolden said. "I'll be graduating and I'll qualify. I'm not gonna need to go to a junior college or prep school or anything."

Omar Bolden:"I work hard and have a great work ethic," Bolden said. "I never give up and play smart. I'm a hard runner and it takes a couple of guys to bring me down."
