What happened: Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty told @CollegeFBPortal that if drafted in the NFL, he'll keep things simple: go home after games, play video games, watch anime, and cause no trouble. The quote highlights his laid-back approach as a top college star. Jeanty is the nation's leading rusher with over 2,000 yards this season.

Why it matters: This endearing soundbite boosts Jeanty's appeal to NFL teams wary of off-field risks, potentially solidifying his top-10 draft projection. Historically, drama-free RBs like Bijan Robinson have thrived early in pros.

By the numbers: Rushing stats: 2,063 yds, 27 TD (leads FBS); Draft projection: Top-10 pick (consensus mocks); Injury history: None significant.

What to watch: Monitor Boise State's College Football Playoff run and Jeanty's Heisman performance; watch for updated NFL Draft first-round props.
