It might be easier to list what Da'Marion "Fluff" Bothwell didn't accomplish for Oneonta (Alabama) against Etowah

Bothwell, a South Alabama commit, stuffed the stat sheet on both sides of the ball in Oneonta's 62-36 win over Etowah on Friday.

The senior totaled more than 375 yards and eight touchdowns on offense, according to AL.com. He rushed for 265 yards and four touchdowns, made four catches for 122 yards and three receiving touchdowns and passed for 40 yards and one touchdown.

On defense, Bothwell racked up 17 tackles, including a sack, in the Redskins' 26-point victory.

Last year as a junior, Bothwell finished with 3,112 rushing yards and 44 total touchdowns, the latter of which is one of the highest marks in a season in Alabama history. He helped Oneonta reach the AHSAA Class 4A state semifinals with a 315-yard, five-touchdown night in the quarterfinals.

His name can be found several times in the AHSAA record books for various statistical achievements and career milestones.

Bothwell is a top 100 running back nationally in the class of 2024, per the 247Sports composite rankings, currently ranked No. 90. 

The three-star recruit committed to South Alabama last month, choosing the Jaguars over offers from Army, Navy, Jacksonville State and more.
