CORVALLIS – Count Jermar Jefferson among the surprised as to what the freshman running back has accomplished during the first half of Oregon State’s 2018 season.
Jefferson is the Pac-12 leader in rushing yardage, touchdowns and 100-yard games. He’s No. 4 nationally in rushing yardage and scoring.
“When I came (to Corvallis), I came in college ready,” Jefferson said. “But I definitely didn’t expect I was going to do things like I’m doing now.”
Tuesday was the first time Jefferson has been permitted to speak to the media other than taking a few brief post-game questions after his big rushing performances Southern Utah and Arizona State.
