For four years, graduate running back Kalel Mullings has been in the shadows. For four years, Mullings stood on the sidelines, waiting for his moment to shine. That time has finally come.
When Mullings switched to running back three years ago, his playing time was sparse at best. Two years ago he had just 14 carries for 31 yards. Last year, he took a jump by accumulating 222 yards in 13 games. Still, he was stuck behind Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards.
Two seasons amounted to 253 yards for Mullings. This season, three games has amounted to 270 yards.
