Speedster has battled injuries throughout much of his two seasons at ASU ... when healthy, his game-changing speed has been a catalyst for the Mountaineer offense on a number of occasions ... if he can avoid injuries, Radford could be a valuable contributor to the Mountaineers this season as a runner and receiver out of the backfield as well as on kick returns.
2009: Battled nagging injuries early in the season but appeared in nine of the final 10 games of the season ... was a regular on kickoff returns after CoCo Hillary’s season-ending knee injury prior to the ninth game of the season ... returned 12 kickoffs for 250 yards (20.8 avg.), including a season-long 46-yarder in the national quarterfinals at Richmond ... rushed 30 times for 62 yards on the season ... carried the ball a season-high 10 times for 22 yards and his only touchdown of the year versus North Carolina Central.
2008: Despite battling a knee ailment that cost him four full games late in the season, the Virginia Tech transfer finished third on the team with 520 rushing yards in his first season at ASU ... was ASU’s biggest “home run threat” out of the backfield ... his 6.9-yards-per-rush average was by far the highest on the team among runners with at least 20 carries (next highest average was Matt Cline’s 5.9) ... also led the team by a large margin with 35.6 yards per reception, albeit on only five catches (178 total receiving yards) ... gained 50 yards or more on four of his 80 touches on the season (five percent) while 9-of-80 touches went for 20 yards or more (11.3 percent) ... two of his five receptions on the season went for touchdowns ... four rushing touchdowns tied for fourth on the squad ... had an inauspicious beginning to the season, rushing for only 14 yards through three games ... broke out of the early-season slump in a big way versus Presbyterian with 251 all-purpose yards (179 rushing on 17 carries and a 72-yard reception) and three touchdowns (two rushing, one receiving) ... was named SoCon Offensive Player of the Week for his effort versus PC ... racked up over 100 total yards again the following week against The Citadel with 72 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries and a 68-yard touchdown catch (140 all-purpose yards) ... he would go on to rush for 76 yards at Georgia Southern, 90 at home versus Furman (including an 84-yard gallop — the seventh-longest rush in ASU history) and 69 yards with a touchdown against Wofford over a three-game stretch in October ... however, a knee injury sidelined him for the entire month of November (four games) ... he returned for the national quarterfinals versus Richmond, but managed only 11 yards on seven carries.
