I hate that just cuz they paid Perine, Evans gets screwed with touches. It's obvious Evans is better..
Evans did not "flash a lot" in college. His best rushing season was 685 yards and his best receiving season was 157 yards.
Here is a comparison between Perine's FRESHMAN SEASON at Oklahoma compared to Evans ENTIRE CAREER at Michigan
Perine.....1713 rush yards, 21 tds, 6.5 avg
Evans.....1795 rush yards, 15 tds, 5.6 avg
I am not a huge fan of Perine. And I am not trying to bash Evans. I'd love to see Chris develop into a good third down back. But the amount of love he gets around here for doing nothing ion college is a bit ridiculous at times.
