Rush Through the Roster: #21 Demetris Murray

#21 - Demetris Murray - 6-0 224-pounds - RS Senior - RB - Buford, GA (Buford HS)

2011 stats:  Murray appeared in all 12 games last year (starting 4 of them).  He finished the year with 121 carries for 503 yards (4.2 per carry) including 8 touchdowns.  He caught 18 passes for 205 yards (11.4) as well, splitting time in the backfield with Darrell Scott.

Position on the depth chart: Murray is the starting running back coming out of the spring and heading into the season.

2012 projection:  Murray is the starter and will carry a bulk of the rushing duties this season for the Bulls.  He has the size needed to run between the tackles and enough speed to get to the edge.  He is a pass catching threat out of the backfield as well, so look for Murray to rack up career highs this season and be one of the big stars on offense.  The team will need him to have a huge season for the offense to be at their best and he is ready for the task ahead.
