Tony Sands, June Henley and Now Pooka Williams

I was in the eastside stands when Tony Sands set the single game rushing record against a hapless Missouri team. I yelled until my voice was gone for Juuuuuuuun! Now, I just hope Coach Miles can keep Pooka on the team.

Our Oline actually looked competent most of the time against OU. But for some dumb mistakes, we had a chance to upset OU. That's really enough to get me back to Memorial Stadium. I really hope to be yelling for Pooka next season. Rock Chalk.

Pooka has a chance to be the best RB in kansas history and that's saying a lot. If Miles can improve the offensive line, look out because he could be a Heisman threat in 2020 IMO. I was wondering if anyone knew the freshman rushing record? Pooka currently has 1022 yards in only ten games, he prob would've had over a 100 against Nichols and we would've won. Herbert and Williams both had 25+ yard runs in that game that Pooka prob houses for 6.

I.'m not sure what the record is. - -While I was trying to see if he had a 1,000 yards yet on the season = = pulled up the individual stats for the players off KU Athletics ,com- -and it show Pooka KUathletics . com with 1,071 yards. - -so the one you show or the one I seen off from KU either way he is over 1,000 yards

@jayballer73 ESPN shows that 1022 yards, there maybe question into a few of his runs being passes or runs. I think it has to be a forward pass to be a completion not a rushing attempt
