Shamari Brooks

Last year was a remarkable letdown for Tulsa, as it finished 2-10 after going 10-3 in 2016, but Brooks was one bright spot. Before a broken collarbone ended his season after nine games, Brooks raced to 687 yards and 10 touchdowns on 119 carries, good for 5.8 yards per attempt. While the Golden Hurricane returns most of its recognizable names on offense, one notable exception is the now-graduated D'Angelo Brewer, whose exit all but assures a big promotion for Brooks after Brewer saw more than 20 carries per game over the last two years.
