LenDale White is going to be a better NFL running back than Reggie Bush.

Reminds me of Lydell Mitchell and Franco Harris of Penn State. Mitchell got lots more yards in college, but Harris, who blocked for him, is the more memorable NFL back.

Bush reminds me of a guy named Brent Fullwood -- who succeeded Bo Jackson as the tailback at Auburn and had a couple of great seasons. Averaged something like 8.3 yards per carry his senior season, and was a Heisman finalist that year.

He went very high in the draft (#6 to the Packers, I think) but never did much in the NFL. I think his straight-up running style worked fine in college but was a terrible match for the NFL game.
