Who’s the best running back in the Brian Kelly era?

On Tuesday, Tim Prister of IrishIllustrated.com ranked the best running backs in the Brian Kelly era. The rankings only include players that Kelly recruited himself, so sorry, no Robert Hughes, Theo Riddick or Jonas Gray.

Despite what some have said recently about Josh Adams, Prister has him as the best and most productive one yet, and he still has two more years of eligibility. Adams has already rushed for 1,789 yards in his first two seasons, which ranks only behind Darius Walker, Allen Pinkett and Autry Denson.
