Teriyon Gipson, 79.
Romell Jordan, 72.
Tyrone Owens, 65.
Daryl Chestnut, 64.
Richard McQuarley, 44.
Those numbers represent the longest runs from scrimmage during their University of New Mexico football careers by each of the five scholarship running backs who are participating in spring practice.
Not on that list is Jhurell Pressley, who completed his eligibility last fall.
Will he be missed? Of course he will. Pressley was a big-play machine – with eight rushes of 45 yards or more, 13 of 30 or more, the past two seasons.
“Pressley’s a unique guy, there’s no question,” UNM coach Bob Davie said after Wednesday’s spring practice session.
