Q&A: Beckles talks spring, deep group of RBs
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — This offseason, head coach Rick Stockstill has said he wants to see more production in Middle Tennessee's run game actually come from running backs after quarterback Asher O'Hara led the team in rushing yards the last two years.
Offensive coordinator Brent Dearmon was hired in January, and along with finding a new signal caller after O'Hara transferred, he and running backs coach Jeff Beckles are also tasked with unleashing the Blue Raiders' stable of backs.
Beckles, who's been in his role at MT since 2016, has a talented-looking group on paper.
