JONESBORO, Ark. -- Arkansas State lost its leading returning rusher for the season because of a knee injury.

Chris Easley tore his anterior cruciate ligament in practice last week while changing direction as he carried the ball. Indians coach Steve Roberts said running back Reginald Arnold, a redshirt freshman, will start Saturday in the season-opener against Army, with Chris James also getting playing time. Roberts said fullback Oren O'Neal might also play.

Easley was considered a top candidate to replace Antonio Warren and Shermar Bracey as Arkansas State's top running back. Warren rushed for 1,066 yards last season and Bracey added 699, but both were seniors.

Easley missed the 2004 season because of a knee injury, but returned in '05 and ran for 187 yards on 32 carries. He is expected to have surgery this week.
