Ok so the season is sneaking up on us, and I was looking at some stuff and I noticed something interesting. Follow me here...
Roy Helu Statistics:
2007- 209 yards
2008- 803 yards
2009- 1147 yards
Total- 2,159 yards
Which currently ranks him 22nd in Nebraska's record books for career rushing. Now lets say Roy rushes for 1,000 yards in 2010, that will give him 3,159 yards. Which would rank him 4th in career rushing yards behind Mike Rozier, Ahman Green, and Eric Crouch.
Granted we will have to see whether or not he can obtain that 1,000 yards this year, but that is some impressive company. I know a lot of people fell in love with Rex, but I still think Roy is our best option at RB this year and I hope he gets enough touches and stays healthy to put up at least 1,000 yards.
