Doug Martin #6 All-Time in Receiving Yards by a Running Back

With an exceptional game tonight (122 yards receiving), Doug Martin is now at least #6 in Boise State history for career receiving yards by a running back with 632 receiving yards.  The Boise State staff did not produce receiving yards in the 1980 season, and I believe David Hughes had enough that year to keep him ahead of Martin.  In fact, Hughes could be as high as #2.  I am trying to ascertain the 1980 yards for Hughes by digging into the past Bronco games myself and will try to have an update soon.


1.    Brock Forsey (1,050) 1999-2002
2.    Jeremy Avery (790) 2007-2010
3.    David Tingstad (753) 1989-1992
4.    John Smith (673) 1972-1975

5.    Doug Martin (632) 2008-current
6.    David Hughes (531) 1977-1979 + 1980 *
7.    Jeff Carpenter (491) 2003-2005
8.    K.C. Adams (490) 1994
9.    Dave Nicely (448) 1971-1974
10.  Chris Jackson (388) 1986-1987
