While Tre was a very good back for us, you are confusing his skillset with Gus's offense putting him in awesome spots.
Tre Mason may be the most criminally underrated player on this board. He put up 1000 yards in a Scott LoLlfer offense on a 3-9 team with a weak Oline and no passing game. 1000 yards!

Tre is a great back, but you guys are putting him above players that are simply better backs in terms of skill sets. I know most of you doing so are too young to have watched Fullwood or Brooks play, but both those guys were just better backs. Particularly Fullwood, if he wasn't behind Bo for the majority of his Auburn career he would have won a Heisman himself most likely. Fullwood has the highest ypc of any Auburn back in history, he was amazing.
For me Bo, Fullwood, Caddy, Brooks stand out from the crowd due to a combo of talent and production, then you have guys like Cribbs, Davis, and Mason you can make an argument for in the final spot. Mason isn't being underrated, we just have one of the top RB histories of any school in the country.
You can look here for stats help for those who don't really know about our older backs:
