Running Backs Back In Business
filed in Injuries on Oct.22, 2002 by Booty
All three of our injured running backs, including Heisman candidate Chris Brown, should be ready to play on Saturday against Texas Tech.
Brown, the leading rusher in the NCAA, suffered an ankle sprain against Baylor last saturday and had to leave the game in the third period. The injury was minor and he was able to practice Monday.
Bobby Purify, who has a hip injury, will be ready for Texas Tech. Also returning to practice Monday was Marcus Houston. Barnett said he is now listed as day-to-day on the injury list, and might play on Saturday.

I really hope that Houston can return to the form that we saw when he rung up 150 yards at USC back 2 years ago. He was really something. Welcome back tot he team Houston.

Brown is an awesome player and deserves to be our team’s number one RB. However, Houston is the one with the most talent, and I hope that he has toughened up enough to last a full season so he can run all over the Big 12.
