West Point (Mississippi) four-star running back Kahnen Daniels was nearly unstoppable Friday night.

The 5-foot-11, 190-pound athlete scored all seven of his team's touchdowns and rushed for 427 yards on 38 carries in a 50-40 win over Noxubee County.

In total, Daniels delivered touchdown runs of 3, 64, 37, 3, 35, 5 and 17 yards. 

Entering the season, the Florida pledge was billed as one of Mississippi's most dynamic playmakers, having rushed for 3,052 yards and 32 touchdowns combined during his sophomore and junior years.

Daniels is rated the nation's No. 340 overall prospect and No. 28 running back.

He committed to Florida in April, choosing the Gators over a list of offers that included Alabama, Auburn, Duke, Michigan State, Ole Miss, Oregon and others. 

Overall, Florida's 2024 recruiting class is ranked No. 3 nationally and consists of 22 pledges.
