IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa isn’t expecting running back Brandon Wegher to return any time soon.
Wegher, who rushed for 641 yards and eight touchdowns last season, left the team after two days of fall camp to deal with undisclosed personal issues.
Coach Kirk Ferentz said Thursday that Wegher hasn’t indicated he’ll return in the near future.
The ninth-ranked Hawkeyes are deep at running back, though. Promising sophomores Adam Robinson and Jewel Hampton will likely share carries this season.
