Click below to hear the latest update from TU running back Andre Anderson

Last fall, Andre Anderson was well on his way to becoming the fourth Tulane running back to eclipse the 1,000-yard rushing plateau and had already been named as a candidate for the prestigious Doak Walker Award, the award for the nation's top running back, when he sustained a season-ending shoulder injury against Rice during the seventh game of the year.

Prior to his injury, Anderson started seven games and rushed for a team-best 864 yards and seven touchdowns on 174 carries (5.0 ypc), and he ranked second on the team for receptions (25), third in receiving yards (202) and had one catch for a touchdown.

At the time of his injury, Anderson ranked eighth nationally and first among Conference USA players in rushing yards per game (123.43) and was 24th in the nation and fifth in C-USA for all-purpose yards per contest (152.29). He rushed for 100 or more yards in four games and owned two of the nation's top 11 rushing performances with 255 yards at UTEP (6th) and 219 yards vs. SMU (11th).
