Is Stephen Houston this year's Christine Michael?

After watching some highlights of Indiana games with the intention to check out Cody Latimer, his teammate RB Stephen Houston looks even more impressive than Latimer in several games.

13 carries for 111 yards and a TD against Minnesota.
17 carries for 150 yards and two TDs against Illinois.
17 carries for 120 yards and two TDS against Purdue.

At a compact 5'9, 225, Houston shows explosiveness and vision in the open field. He has a freakish 136 SPARQ with a 40 inch vertical and 11-foot broad jump. Due to his low production in college, he's projected as a low round pick or possible undrafted free agent.

Maybe Zac Stacy is a better comparison due to his low center of gravity and bruising running style:

Indiana RB Tevin Coleman is also impressive. He beat out Houston this year.

If you think 136 counts as a SPARQ freak, what is Michael with his (I believe) 150+ SPARQ?

He actually does resemble Michael quite a bit, minus the insane explosiveness.
