Besides Gurshall, who is the best SEC returning RB? Is Davis coming back or is he off to the draft?

If Davis, is coming back, I think it is safe to say the East has the top returning RB's, even though as a whole I think the West RB'S will be better than the East's.

Davis or Yeldon. Yeldon if he didn't fumble, but he does, so it's close.

Give me Yeldon, Drake and Henry over any other trio of backs in the lead.

Fun fact: Yeldon has quietly placed himself in prime position to eclipse Shaun Alexander's career rushing record - a record that Alexander took four full years to establish. Yeldon can break it in three.

Davis or Yeldon. Davis does more for his team by himself, but talent wise, I think Yeldon is better. It's a talent vs. production discussion and it will never be objective here

The question should be which RB will do the most for his team. In that case I am going with Davis.

Top returnin rb's in the SEC don't really make one damn unless someone is returning a shitty coach's favorite like state and ole miss started out with last year.

This year, by the end of the season,the best two or three running backs in the league might be freshmen.

I really like Williams at SCAR, Chubb at UGA and especially that kid Fournette at LSU. All three appear to be special backs.

If you think about it, the SEC was already loaded with RBs but those three have the potential to be future big-time mega stars. Williams probably before the other two simply because he's already a RFr who has bulked-up and learned the speed of the game to some extent. But I fully expect Fournette to start three or four games into the season if not sooner.

I think Davis is the best returning back. But I wouldn't be surprised if CAP led the conference in rushing, especially with Auburn's o-line and Marshall as an option on the zone read.

Gotta love how the thread title pertains to RBs that are returning from last year, and several posters start throwing out the names of first year players who haven't stepped foot on campus.

Gurley is the best combo of size and speed in the league. Marshall is a good back but he wouldn't be in any conversation without getting Gurley's sloppy seconds. Don't get me wrong, he's really good, but a lot of teams in the SEC have RBs as good if not better.
