Butch Davis optimistic about running attack
Posted Jul 18, 2008
Butch Davis said Thursday he is optimistic about his team's running game after watching wide-receiver-turned-running-back Greg Little average 123 yards in the final two games of last season. But Little can't do it alone. "I don't think that solely by himself, he's going to be the answer,'' Davis said. "I think he's going to be an enormous part of our success running the football, but we're going to need more people than just Greg Little."
