Position: Running Back Jersey Number: 20 Bench Press: 70kgs 40-Yard Dash: 4.5 seconds; later: 4.1 seconds Power: C Speed: SS Technique: S Odds of winning MVP title: 3.3 to 1 Panther is a good-natured person who has extraordinary running talents, but has been reduced to being a ballboy, due to Apollo's prejudice. He trains everyday by running across rooftops. Panther's dream is to become a pro NFL player and make money so that his grandmother would no longer have to work. He is also one of the few people who is able to eat his grandmother's horrendous oatmeal recipe. Initially, he wasn't interested in going to Japan since he really wanted to compete against Shin. Then he saw Eyeshield 21's running ability on Hiruma's web video and wanted to run against him. Eventually, he and Sena became good friends and promised to play on equal terms the next time they met on the field (since Sena was nearly at his limit by the time Panther had entered the game). It is also said that his character and design were inspired by the famous soccer player Eusébio, also known as "The Black Panther". (Source: Wikipedia)
