Every Monday during the college football season we will check in on five five-star prospects to see how they’re performing and if they are living up to the lofty billing that led them to be ranked at the top of the Rivals100. This week we focus on five-star running backs from the Class of 2015 to see how they fared in Week 4.

As a recruit: Jamabo explored many options during his high school career and took official visits to Notre Dame, Texas, Texas A&M and UCLA during his senior season. Most expected that it would be tough to pull him out of the Lone Star State but the Bruins did exactly that, landing his commitment on Signing Day.
What he did this week: After missing the last two games, including the Bruins' loss at Memphis last week, Jamabo returned to the field and had his first 100-yard game at the collegiate level in UCLA's loss to Stanford. Despite only playing in two games this year Jamabo is well on pace to have the best season of his career. In a year where the Bruins have tried several different players at the running back position, UCLA fans and coaches alike are hoping that Jamabo continues to tap into the potential that made him one of the nation’s top recruits.
You can see how the rest of the 2015 5-star running backs are panning out here.
