Versatile RB Jamal Morrow is the WSU Cougars’ Swiss Army Knife

Jamal Morrow played just about every sport as a child. It's part of the reason why he's become WSU's most versatile running back

Going into this season, Washington State running back Jamal Morrow had played in 24 games, and had more receiving touchdowns (four) in his Cougars career than he had rushing touchdowns (zero).

Ironic, considering that he’s a running back?

Not in this offense.

In the second year of Luke Falk’s tenure as Washington State’s quarterback, the Cougars’ running game has exploded. After taking chances on a program that’s not known for running the ball, then biding their time as the offense evolved, WSU’s three backs Morrow, James Williams and Gerard Wicks, have been the deserving beneficiaries of a ground attack that heads into this weekend’s Oregon State game leading the conference with 22 touchdowns by their running backs.
