Josh Chapman brings UT Martin a bruising, record-setting backfield edge
Josh Chapman is a tough, downhill UT Martin runner whose calling card has been physical, chain-moving football rather than flash. In 2007, he was already part of a Skyhawks offense that leaned on the ground game, and contemporary UT Martin coverage described him as a key piece in a team built around a powerful rushing identity. What makes him interesting is the “how” as much as the “what”: he’s the kind of back who fits a grind-it-out attack, takes contact, and gives a roster a dependable tone-setter when the game gets ugly.
