Which RB will we all look back on and wonder what might have been if he got 20+ carries a game?

NO question Addai. However when he wasn't injured his senior year he got carries. KW has A LOT of work to do this year to live up to expectations IMO, and I hope he does.

addai could have gotten 20 carries a game for 12-13 games if his body allowed it
addai's body was made of glass, and it always held him back

I will never understand the love fest with Keiland Williams. He has shown me nothing that says he should be getting 20+ carries a game. I think he's been used just as should have been. Scott is the workhorse and, frankly, better running back, and deserves to get more carries than KW.
Addai was hurt alot, so it's hard to say he should have gotten more carries. Justin Vincent also had a career year in 2003 that detracted from Addai.

To answer the original question, I believe that it's KW. He has thrilled me with some electrifying runs (some after catch) in big games.
I like the idea of KW and CS both in the backfield on a situational basis. I'd like to see that 10 to 15 times a game. I'd also like to see KW get around 20 to 25 snaps per game. That's not to say carries per game.
I do believe that CS either wore out or became dinged-up last season. Perhaps KW can help reduce that load.
The Tigers certainly have other dangerous ball carriers like Murphy, Ridley, Ford, Holliday and Shep. I'd like to see them all get some carries every game, and they should. After all, the Tigers run the ball about 38 times per game on average (based on last year with new timing). rules).

Alley. Well, more like what if Alley had gotten the starting job earlier in 04, or at least gotten a lot more carries against AU

I would have to say KW because we all know what JA can do with 20 carries o more
