Spencer Ware has had a rough go of it in both college and the pros. A supremely talented runner, at LSU he had to split time with a dizzying array of other talented backs: Alfred Blue, Kenny Hiliard, Jeremy Hill, Alfred Blue, Russell Shepherd, Jordan Jefferson and Stevan Ridley. What always set Spencer are apart was his physique, 5-foot-10 and 223-pounds and running a 4.62 40. Not blazing to be sure but for a load like Ware, enough speead to build up some inertia.
It took Ware three years at LSU t to accumulate the 295 carries and 1249 yards with 12 touchdowns.
