a South Carolina depth back with proven burst, but limited volume
In the 2000–2001 seasons, Robert Echols was a low-volume South Carolina RB who flashed efficiency, finishing his South Carolina career with 7 carries for 24 yards and no touchdowns, plus 7 receptions for 24 yards.[9] His profile reads like a complementary piece rather than a featured runner: compact (5'7", about 180–182 pounds in roster listings) and used sparingly, suggesting short-area quickness and versatility more than bell-cow power.[2][4] If you need a change-of-pace back who can stay ready without needing the spotlight, he fits the “useful, not noisy” mold.
