Seems like the metrics dig into what makes a great running back.
Yards per carry, hard fought yards, getting in the end zone, making people miss... what else is there to a running back?!?

CEH is gonna make for a really solid back in the modern NFL. Seems that he could be on the field for any down
1. Swift
2. CEH
3. Najee
4. Whitlow
5. Hill
1. Swift
2. CEH
3. Najee
4. Whitlow
5. Hill

But I was told quite vociferously William, that LSU lacked a running game.
Pimp, I too heard that sentiment. Seems like many people just glance at stats without digging in.
They praise PlayerA when he runs for 116 yards - but ignore the fact that it took him 44 carries.
Meanwhile they diss PlayerCEH when he has 70 yards - but ignore the fact that he did it on 10 carries.
I <3 the truth!

Speaking for the entire board, William, we appreciate your absolute commitment to shedding light on the truth.

Wow.
That one guy is on nearly every list. Even the ones that seem a bit... reachy.
Guess that settles it!

It seemed like a pretty comprehensive collection of relevant stats but if you have other metrics to offer by all means

I challenge you to select some equally relevant stats that tell a different story

RAKEEM BOYD has to be up there. He plays behind a TERRIBLE, like all-time bad offensive line and is still 3rd in rushing, despite missing time due to injury.

Definitely Swift.
If he played for LSU he'd have 20 Tds by now.
. . . but he'd also likely be sitting for the rest of the season due to injury.

Swift and it isn’t close. But the SEC is no longer a RB League.
Kind of amazing that Swift is the only SEC back that is even close to a household name on that list right now.
