The irony of the current state of UT's run game...
It's incredible to me that there are three Longhorns in the top 20 rushers in the NFL right now. Granted, one is a Heisman winner (R. Williams), one helped to win a national championship (C. Benson), and one is a former world-class track star (J. Charles), but it's incredible that three of these guys are at the top of the game and they all came from Texas. I don't imagine we'll be able to say anything like this five years from now...

Jamaal Charles
I was about to ask what makes him a top-20 back, but then I saw those are fantasy rankings. Obviously his return skills are a factor in that ranking.

True, it's fantasy
But he has been great since getting the starting nod… it’s hard to rank him overall through the season since he only got the starting job halfway through the season.
P.S.
In fantasy, depending on the league, returns are usually attributed to D/ST, not to the individual.
ESPN and Yahoo standard scoring credit the individual in addition to the D/ST

"one helped to win a national championship (C. Benson)"
Am I crazy, or did Benson graduate the year before the NC? I believe Jamal Charles was our leading rusher (at RB) that year.
