Do Johnny Musso or Charles Alexander ring a bell? Great college backs who got beat up in college and didn't do much damage at the next level. I still can't figure out what Mark Ingram's deal is.

Johnny Musso 574 carries (any 3 year starter would have as many carries)
Charles Alexander 855 carries (4 years)


Herschel Walker - 994 car in 3 years/ 17 year pro career

I think I caught a got damn cramp in my hand


Point is, amount of carries don't mean a thing. It's all about the RB in question.
