I don't understand what advantage EIGRP would give.   First, no routing 
protocol load balances.  It is the routing table
task that makes the final decision about load balancing, with the mode 
dependent
on the switching modes of the output interfaces.

Second, any routing protocol, except standard BGP (i.e., without Cisco 
extensions) and
OSPF externals, can produce equal-cost routes eligible for load balancing.

EIGRP and IGRP can produce unequal-cost routes eligible for load balancing,
but the media here specifically are equal cost
