Baylor down to 3 freshman RBs because of Hasty's knee injury

Sep 4, 2017 - 6:16 PM WACO, Texas (AP) — Baylor running back JaMycal Hasty is expected to out at least four weeks because of a sprained knee. Coach Matt Rhule said Monday the sophomore will not need surgery. Hasty was hurt in the season-opening 48-45 loss to Liberty in which he ran 11 times for 56 yards and a touchdown. Freshman John Lovett ran for 89 yards and two touchdowns in his Baylor debut. The Bears also have two other freshman running backs expected to play — Dru Dixon and Trestan Ebner. Baylor already was without 1,000-yard rusher Terence Williams. The junior is recovering from offseason shoulder surgery. Rhule is optimistic Williams can return in a "couple of weeks." ___ More AP college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP_Top25
