He is already in the Top 50 just in yards from scrimmage rushing an receiving.If you look at the list of top 50 rushing yard leaders outside of the all time well known greats of Herschel,Ron Dayne,Archie Griffin,Ricky Williams,Reggie Bush,etc once it gets outside the top 10-12 players there isn’t many players that blow you away to say yeah they were one of the best to ever do it,for example Justin Jackson from Northwestern is like 12th all time rushing yard leader,he had like 300 plus more carries than K Faulk which is a season and a half more carries in comparison to Kevin’s average of around 200 carries a season.Averaging 5.3 yards a carry for a career in the SEC is legendary,it’s the exact same average yards per carry as Herschel Walker.K Faulk is vastly underrated

List is a joke. Derrick Henry at 33? Dude was unstoppable. Archie Griffin at 2?? Joke. Didn't deserve one Heisman much less two.

Faulk should be up there near McFadden. Only Bo, Herschel, and Henry were better.

Then you had Matt Jones that could run like a gazelle if he faked a handoff. Jones would have been even better running a modern read-option offense.
Matt Jones just missed being on the same team as McFadden/Jones/Hillis by one year. It's a shame that backfield came in the period between Matt Jones and Ryan Mallett with crappy QB play or that offense would have been crazy good. Even the 4th string RB on that team Michael Smith was all-SEC in 2008.
