The running back exploded for long runs early in the season, but is getting back to his gritty ways.
Junior running back Greg Howell took his first carry of the 2016 season 48 yards for a touchdown. Two carries later, he ran for a 37-yard touchdown.
Not typically known as a home-run hitter — Howell only recorded one 30-yard run in his first two seasons — the accounting major has taken a carry for at least 37 yards four times in the team’s first five games, and added another rush of 21 yards.
