ESPN.com: Auburn Tigers Player Card

I keep hearing that Campbell is going to add a new scrambling element to our offense so I decided to look up his stats. I was sort of suprised that people keep making it seem like he's going to be like Mark Brunell used to be back in the 70's.
He only averaged like 2.5 yards a carry on 131 attempts over 2 seasons in college. That seems like a lot of attempts, but I really wouldn't say he's going to take off for 15 yards anytime the pocket breaks down.
Maybe I'm off here, but I'm jsut worried that people are going to be expecting too much of Campbell in the coming weeks (God, I hope I'm wrong).
