TROY — There was a tinge of euphoria, despite the sadness over the final score, inside Troy running back Jabir Daughtry-Frye.

Reflected with his agony from the previous almost two years, right down to recovering from a knee injury only to realize he hadn’t recovered enough, who could blame him?

Scoring a touchdown in his first game back, averaging almost 6 yards per carry and leading Troy in rushing provided some sunshine, despite a 56-20 loss to Boise State.
