2023 Fantasy Outlook
Cooper has progressed tremendously during his three-year span at Kent State but is looking to do the same this season after deciding to transfer to Ball State. Cooper played a workhorse role the last two seasons at Kent State, where he saw 285 carries for 1,331 yards and 13 touchdowns last season. He now takes over a lead role at Bowling Green in an offense that gave Carson Steele 289 carries and 38 targets, suggesting Cooper could increase his involvement in his final collegiate campaign.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
Cooper was a huge part of Kent State’s run to the MAC title game last season. The tailback easily paced the team in carries with 241 as a workhorse runner. With that plethora of carries, Cooper logged 1,205 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground. The halfback was a little hot-and-cold, as in some games he had rushing totals in the 20’s and 30’s, while in others he ran for 173, 135 and 126 yards. Regardless, he was the heartbeat of the Golden Flashes’ ground game, and he might be asked to be the heartbeat of the entire offense as Kent State breaks in a new starter at quarterback after the departure of Dustin Crum. Whatever kind of quarterback play Kent State gets in 2022, they know they’ll have a strong ground game to lean on, spearheaded by Cooper.
