  There's a growing consensus among those who closely follow Kansas football: Pooka Williams is deserving of, and should receive, more touches on game day. That conclusion has been reached out of the combination of both the junior running back's top-tier abilities - on display in limited spurts across his team's first two contests - and evaluations of a Jayhawk offense that has too often been an eyesore. Williams, however, doesn't appear to have strong feelings about that consensus - at least, it isn't something the preseason All-Big 12 selection is politicking for publicly.

"I'm a team player," said Williams, speaking after the Jayhawks' 47-14 defeat last Saturday at Baylor. "I mean, I want everybody on the field to eat." While Williams' team-first answer struck the right chord following that lopsided defeat, it did little to quell those calling for more carries for the former four-star recruit. That group gained a very notable member Monday in KU head coach Les Miles. "I see Pooka getting better and better. One thing about Pooka: He's got leadership abilities. He is one of the more natural runners that I have ever seen," Miles said. "...I'd like to get him a few more touches to be honest with you." - Topeka Capital Journal
