The size/speed combo at his age is really only comparable to Eric ****erson. Here’s the part where i have to preemptively qualify that I am not saying he is Eric ****erson. Just stating the facts about his physical profile.
As far as speed goes, MJC is faster than AP, Steven Jackson, and Derrick Henry at this same stage.

He didn’t get a ton of carries there because he was in the backfield with a RB going to A&M. He has played with good running backs his whole HS career. He’ll do the same here.
It’s a new dawn, it’s a new light, it’s a new day. We’re positioned to get a superstar running back with the last name -Cook.
His relay team, mind you — MJC is a SOPHOMORE at this time — is one of the fastest ever recorded in mankind; and it was a team of teenagers. MJC was the anchor and the fastest member of the team.
They broke under 41 seconds three separate times: 40.63, 40.45 & 40.15. MJC raced solo 5x and didn’t go above 10.65 the whole mf szn. His teammates’ individual times ranged from 10.88 to 11.58. One March race they ran without him and their time was 41.63.
It was two sophomores and two seniors. The second fastest member was Dexter Mason who was also a sophomore. In 2026, The newly formed team with a faster Mason still there just ran a 42.36. MJC is worth up to two extra seconds and some change; otherwise the speed-exchange rate is about a buck.
Speed isn’t just quantitive, there is a qualitative aspect to it too. Still, MJC is too fast to be called a speed demon. Hermes flow.
