ASU not rushing its ground attack

Arkansas State University offensive coordinator Keith Heckendorf is planning on the Red Wolves playing 14 games this year -- 12 regular season games, the Sun Belt Conference Championship Game and a bowl game.

And if the Red Wolves want any shot of doing that and possibly taking home the Sun Belt title in December, their running backs are going to have to stay relatively healthy. Which is why Heckendorf rotated four different backs -- senior Jamal Jones, junior Ryan Graham, sophomore Isaiah Azubuike and freshman Lincoln Pare -- against Memphis and plans to do so again Saturday against Kansas State.
