but I'm going to guess Trent Richardson? And if so, I don't think those situations are very comparable.

I'm gonna take a blind guess and say Robert Elliot.

He'splayed at Auburn 2 years, and they run a fairly similar system to us.

Comparing the stats of our starter to a back up? Dont forget to mention that the "mystery" player in this case just happened to be a freshman and sophomore in his campaigns.

Richardson is a back up, but he's got 257 career carries compared to Ballard's 168. Richardson didn't play in 2 games last year (which I guess I should have pointed out), but was the feature back in the first 2. Ballard looses carries to Relf, Perkins, and Heavens.

I didn't do it to show that Ballard is better than Richardson, just that I expect them to put up fairly similar numbers in 2011.
