Huskies star running back Myles Gaskin says he will return for his senior season

Washington star running back Myles Gaskin is coming back for his senior season.

Gaskin announced his plans Sunday on Twitter, writing simply: “I’m comin back. #GoDawgz”

The running back from Lynnwood had given strong consideration to entering the NFL draft leading up to the Fiesta Bowl. He ultimately has decided to remain for a fourth season at UW, and he will enter the 2018 season needing just 51 yards to match Napoleon Kaufman’s school rushing record of 4,106 yards.

Gaskin rushed for 98 yards and two touchdowns in the Huskies’ Fiesta Bowl loss to Penn State on Dec.
