BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Appearance won't gain you yards. Sampson James understands that. So while blessed with an elite Big Ten running back look -- his 6-1, 220-pound chiseled physique resembles something Michelangelo might have sculpted -- Indiana's four-star prospect has to prove he can run like one.
The freshman will get his chance this season amid the fiercest position competition the Hoosiers have had in perhaps, well, ever.
Running backs coach Mike Hart has so much available talent that head coach Tom Allen pushes a running-back-by-committee approach.
