Treyvon Hughes gets his moment for UTEP Bret Bloomquist, El Paso Times

Treyvon Hughes' path to a breakout for the UTEP football team has been steeper than most and twistier than most, and a few headlines begin to speak of that tale.

A sampling:

From 2016: Trayvon Hughes out for the year with a knee injury

2017: From hunted to hunter: Hughes enjoys move to LB

2018: UTEP linebacker turned running back Trayvon Hughes impressing new coaches

2019: UTEP tailback battle heats up with absence of injured Quardraiz Wadley

Even that leaves out Hughes' two-week switch back to linebacker this spring, followed by a move back to running back that, after a 144-yard star turn against Houston Baptist in the opener, seems rather permanent.
