MURFREESBORO, Tenn. – Middle Tennessee's running backs group had plenty of question marks going into last season, but it turned things around with multiple players contributing as the season progressed into its later stages.
The strong finish to the year is causing expectations for the group to rise going into 2018.
Three players – senior Tavares Thomas, redshirt junior Terelle West and sophomore Brad Anderson – comprise a three-headed monster that should lead the way. A solid offseason from Chaton Mobley and Maurice Gordon has also caught the eye of running backs coach Jeff Beckles.
