KU running back Devin Neal does it all in Jayhawks' 37-16 victory over Oklahoma State He became the first KU back to record more than 200 yards rushing and 100 yards receiving in a single game.
Tallies 75 yards against Iowa State Neal rushed for 75 yards on 12 carries in Saturday's 14-11 win over Iowa State.
Impact Neal led the team with 12 carries and received more opportunities at the end of the game as Daniel Hishaw left with an injury. Hishaw had eight carries for 28 yards and a touchdown before exiting. If the Hishaw injury turns out to be more serious, Neal is in line for more work against a TCU squad who likes to go back and forth with their opponents.

Loses fumble against Duke Neal rushed for 54 yards on nine carries and caught a four-yard pass while also recording a lost fumble in Saturday's 35-27 win over Duke.
Impact Neal lost a fumble in the first half and also appeared to tweak his leg on the play. He would return for a few more carries in the second half, but Kansas likely played it safe with their top running back. They can afford to do this with back-up Daniel Hishaw and quarterback Jalon Daniels playing so well in the run-game. Neal will look to get back on track against Iowa State next week.

54 rushing yards at Houston Neal rushed for 54 yards on 14 carries in Saturday's 48-30 win at Houston.
Impact Neal received double-digit carries in consecutive games, however, it was quarterback Jalon Daniels who stole the show on the ground with a 100-yard rushing performance and two rushing scores. In fact, Daniels accounted for five of the Jayhawks' touchdowns which is the primary reason Neal had an underwhelming fantasy performance. Fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much as the volume is still there and he could realistically bounce back in a big way against Duke.

Present for spring practice Neal (undisclosed) is participating at spring practice this week, Sam Lance of 247Sports reports.
Impact Neal missed the season finale had a strong freshman campaign with 158 carries for 707 yards and eight touchdowns to go along with seven catches for 57 yards and one more score. Neal is also playing for Kansas' baseball team as an outfielder but is present for spring practice and workouts.

First collegiate TD Neal rushed for 40 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries in Friday's 49-22 loss at Coastal Carolina.
Impact Neal, a true freshman, was able to add his first collegiate touchdown as he paced the backfield with three more carries than teammate Velton Gardner. It's worth noting that it was still quarterback Jason Bean who stole the show with 102 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 13 carries. It appears that Kansas may look to utilize both Neal and Gardner moving forward.

Slated to play in opener Neal is expected to see carries in the season opener against South Dakota, Jesse Newell of The Wichita Eagle reports.
Impact Neal has apparently impressed enough in camp to warrant immediate playing time for the Jayhawks. Exactly how large his role will be is unclear at this juncture, but Velton Gardner is presumably his top competition for reps heading into the campaign.
