RUNNING BACKS<br />

5 • Kasey Carrier • Jr-2L<br />

5-9 • 180 • PEARLAND, TEXAS<br />

Fast, shifty running back and kick returner who showed incredible<br />

promise after making his collegiate debut in in the <strong>Lobos</strong>’ seventh<br />

game in 2009 as a true freshman...not very big, but runs extremely<br />

hard, is an excellent receiver out of the backfield, and a perfect fit<br />

for the team’s spread offense and has a chance to be one of the<br />

primary ball-carriers in the fall...redshirted in 2011 after an injury<br />

caused him to miss most of fall camp and the early part of the<br />

season...a dangerous kick returner as well who is a threat anytime<br />

he touches the ball...showed great potential in his first full season<br />

in 2010...enters his junior year as one of the primary backs for the<br />

<strong>Lobos</strong>...unofficially clocked at 4.5 in the 40 during high school when<br />

he was one of the most dominant RBs in the state of Texas...did<br />

a fine job in the classroom, earning Academic All-MWC honors in<br />

his first semester at UNM...very involved off the field while in high<br />

school as a member of Fellowship of Christian Athletes and as a<br />

volunteer coach for the Pearland Hurricanes youth football team...<br />

after Hurricane Ike hit the area, he removed heavy debris and destroyed<br />

furniture from the homes of the elderly and less fortunate<br />

living in his neighborhood.<br />

2012 Season: Started his first game of the season at Texas Tech<br />

and finished with 12 rushing yards ... made his season debut<br />

against No. 17 Texas on Sept. 8 ... rushed for 51 yards on 11 car-<br />
