The Wildcats return last year’s leading rusher in Charles Jones who had 4.1 yards-per-carry and 14 total touchdowns. Somebody else will have to step up though, as QB Jake Waters accounted for much of the offense on the ground in 2014. That may come to fruition by either increasing Jarvis Leverett’s carries, or more likely, by playing redshirt freshman Dalvin Warmack, who possesses good speed and the ability to get around the edge.
