BYU football: Running backs will need to step up without Williams

As Jamaal WIlliams took his talents from BYU football to Packer Nation, this year’s crop of running backs have some major shoes to fill. In Williams’ absence, BYU football will turn to junior Squally Canada and a young running back team to carry the load.

No Williams is concerning

Last season, Jamaal Williams averaged more than 130 yards per game. He totaled up 1,375 rushing yards placing him in the top 25 rushers in the NCAA. BYU football’s second leading rusher last season, QB Taysom Hill, is also no longer with the team.

Where with the rushing come from this season?
