John Wall brings proven Rice toughness and nose for the end zone
In the 2006 season, Rice RB John Wall posted 565 rushing yards and 8 touchdowns on 121 carries, with a 4.7 yards-per-carry average, showing a compact, reliable downhill style that fits short-yardage and goal-line work nicely.[1][7] He’s been described by Rice as a tough back who contributes on special teams, and his 2005 breakout included 156 yards and 3 touchdowns against Tulane, so the appeal is not just production — it’s physicality, versatility, and a track record of stepping up in big spots.[2][13]
