A year ago, the freshman back who made the biggest impression was Spikes. The 5-10, 195-pounder from Dallas was the team's leading rusher with 339 yards and two scores on 103 carries and also was the offense's second-leading receiver with 23 receptions for 398 yards and six touchdowns.
"I'm a versatile back," Spikes said. "I can run it or catch it, whatever I have to do, I'm going to do. I'm very focused and ready to go."
