2022 PRESEASON ASUN FOOTBALL ALL-CONFERENCE TEAM: RB Darius Hale, Central Arkansas, So., Pearland, Texas,...Hale, the ASUN Freshman of the Year in 2021 and the runnerup for the Jerry Rice Award that goes to the top FCS freshman in the nation, led UCA wit h 1,015 rushing yards and 17 rushing touchdowns last season. "That was one of the best freshman years I've ever seen in person at UCA,' said Brown. "Just the production that he had, the number of touchdowns he had, and obviously go over 1,000 yards as a freshman running back. And then to finish second in the Jerry Rice Award as freshman of the year in the country is a huge deal."I think the challenge for Darius is staying hungry, which he has done a great job of. Obviously people are going to kno w who he is now, they will study him more and they'll know maybe his strengths and weaknesses better, what he does well, what he doesn't do well. So it's going to take even better preparation, because obviously the skill set is there. But it's definitely something Darius is ready for and he deserves all the attention he's getting. "I think he has a great football intellect, he's very smart, he proved that last year. His football intelligence is off the charts. And then just his physicality. He's at prob ably 235 pounds right now and runs probably a 4.5 (40-yard dash). He has that rare combination of great size but also the quickness and speed to create long touchdowns. - Central Arkansas Football
