Senior Jaycen Taylor has inched ahead of classmate Kory Sheets in their seemingly never-ending competition to become Purdue's starting running back. Boilermakers coach Joe Tiller gave Taylor "a slight edge" in the contest, calling him the more consistent back. Sheets has started more games (21-4) and scored more touchdowns (22-8) than Taylor the past two seasons, but he has been prone to fumbling. "He's a reckless ball carrier," Tiller told the (Lafayette) Journal and Courier. The Boilermakers added depth to their wide receiver corps last week with Georgia Tech transfer D.J. Donley, who caught eight passes for 101 yards as a freshman last fall.
