Joey Iosefa

A major cultural shift is under way at Hawaii with the arrival of new coach Norm Chow, as the Warriors are leaving their long-held pass-happy offense for a run-heavy, pro-style one. As the team's top returning runner, Iosefa is in line for a huge workload increase as Chow implements the team's new ground game. The big back (6-0, 240) ran for 548 yards and seven touchdowns (5.0 YPC) in his first year with the team in 2011, and the next-best Hawaii runner (Sterling Jackson) didn't appear especially threatening to Iosefa after running for just 246 yards (4.3 YPC). If Iosefa does hold onto the starting role, he should expect to see about 20 carries per game given that Chow called John White's number more than 24 times per game last year for Utah.
