Daktota Allen

Daktoa Allen spent last season as a member of East Mississippi Community College, the program featured on the Netflix Documentary “Last Chance U.”

He used the skills he developed at that level to a prominent position at linebacker for this year’s Red Raiders. He has recorded tackles in all five games this season and his high number of tackles is eight against Houston.

Allen picked off a pass in last week’s win against Kansas. He, too, will by spying Will Grier, which makes him a difficult player for the Mountaineers to gameplan for this week.
