EDIT - NM, this is Sporting News not Athlon. Derp.
I think a lot of Larry Rose III, but how is that not Breida?
Elusive: difficult to find, catch, or achieve

I look at it this way. Kevin Ellison is elusive, Upshaw is fast. Breida is very fast, but I wouldn't consider him super elusive.
If he has another great year might be in the market for a hc, though, I'm not too worried about losing him to another midmajor even a team from the AAC, but a P5, bye, bye
Since Echols-Luper was both punting and catching punts behind his back at the spring game, and I recently saw a video of Texas Transfer Kendall Sanders out running him in a race on the field, maybe Echols-Luper should be best athlete and Sanders should be fastest WR. No disrespect intended to Josh McGee, but Echols-Luper returned a kickoff for a TD and punted a 40 yarder in the spring game as I understand it.
Can you imagine lining Echols-Luper up at punter with Anderson's reputation for fake punts? He was also a high school QB. My goodness the possibilities.
