It's a video that has been viewed more than 9 million times. Cody Paul was only 12 in 2006, but the shifty moves of the pint-sized running back/return specialist earned comparisons to Reggie Bush.
Paul helped the Los Alamitos Griffins win a Pee Wee Pop Warner national championship, then he played for Los Alamitos High in Orange County, California.
He put together a decent senior season — 1,201 rushing yards and 18 touchdowns in 158 carries, according to MaxPreps — but the big teams weren't interested in the 5 foot 5, 159 pound Paul.
With few options, Paul decided to continue his playing career at Division II Chadron State, which is located in northwest Nebraska, not far from South Dakota and Wyoming.
After the jump is the highlight reel from Paul's senior season.
