The Horned Frogs’ representatives on the list are running back Kyle Hicks, a senior from Arlington Martin who topped the 1,000-yard rushing mark last season, and receiver/kick returner KaVontae Turpin, a junior who averaged a team-high 123.2 all-purpose yards despite missing five games because of a knee ailment.
