Agreed. In many ways, as an elite RB recruit it could be seen as a positive to sign with a school that has another elite RB in the same class. If both were as advertised, they would get plenty of opportunities to show out in college and with the shelf life of NFL RB's decreasing every year, NFL scouts would see the split carries as a positive because they are twice as fresh as the would've been if they had been an every down back.
