HASSAN HALL – RB – So.

If you’ve been reading anything about Louisville Football since the end of last season, there is little chance you haven’t seen Hassan Hall’s name appear – and for good reason.

The sophomore running back is entering a perfect storm next season.

In-line to be the featured back, Hall will enter his sophomore campaign with a new offensive scheme that prides itself on the run game – warranting a lot more touches for a breakout season.

Given the fact Louisville Football has not seen a running back hit 1,000 yards since Bilal Powell’s Big East days (1,405 rushing yards in 2010) – Hall should be excited to do what hasn’t been done in almost a decade.

Even with an abysmal overall performance as a team, Hassan showed Louisville fans enough glimpses and highlights last season for everyone to jump on the bandwagon early.
