Arizona's J.J. Taylor: Named co-starting running back with Nick Wilson

Taylor was named co-starting running back alongside Nick Wilson, Kevin Zimmerman of Arizona Sports on 98.7 FM reports.

Analysis:

Taylor was named co-starter, but coach Rich Rodriguez noted that he thinks they have three possible starters, which includes backup Zach Green. This means his value will likely stay lower as he'll have to compete with two equal caliber backs for touches. As a freshman, Taylor had 38 rush attempts for 261 yards and two touchdowns.
