Through first five games in 1980:

Walker 463 yards 5 TDs

Through first five games in 2012:

Gurley 536 yards 9 TDs

Gurley also has half the carries that Herschel had at the same point in time…

Gurley has been truly awesome as a true freshman playing in the SEC but he should never ever be compared to Herschel.

Gurley had an easier first 5 game schedule than HW.

Gurley is a beast no doubt, but he (or anyone else, for that matter) shouldn't be compared to HW until all is said and done and the facts are in. NEVER.

Gurley actually runs a faster 40 than Herschel did. Of course Herschel had world class speed in the 100. Herschel just kept accelerating...

Gurley:
Ran an unofficial 4.25 40 in camp and an official 4.3.
