if I were Miles and Fournette is as advertised then I would try to use those two in the same capacity Lacy and Yeldon were used a year ago. Both exceeding 1K rushing is very doable
Hill\Fournette will be the OBJ\Landry duo for next season.If O-Line is good these 2 men will be beast!!

So you're saying he will throw a few touchdowns?

Ballin out of control for the next 3 years. And Next time Gameday comes to town I expect Lee Courso to be wearing a BUGA NATION shirt.

His Heisman prediction will be one year off (2015)

Most need to lower their expectations.... he'll be good, doubt he'll be better than Kevin Faulk. And it took Faulk a year to hit his stride at the next level.

About 3450 yards rushing for his career.

He won't start in front of Hill, but he gets plenty of carries. Sophomore year, clearly "the guy"! Hill rushes for at least 1,400 and LF at least 900 next year. Best 1 - 2 punch in the nation next year providing both Collins & Turner return. Agree, Heisman is a real possibility for Fournette and he loves the pressure! Ground & Pound!

Well the same could have been said about Hill coming out of High School.........

I could see 900 for LF. I think for most of his first year he should be used heavily late in games when we have a comfortable lead. Let him build his confidence and absolutely demoralize the other team after they have been getting run over by Hill and Magee all game.
Looking at our stats, we ran the ball 523 times last year basically between Hill, Magee, Blue and Hilliard. Next year I expect us to run a bit more so we will have 550-600 carries to dole out. Hill should get 250ish, Magee in the 200 range, and LF with about 150 or so carries. Each has the possibility to average 7ypc. I wouldn't be surprised if we had 3 1000 yard rushers next season.

Hill coming back will certainly make it easier on him regarding the hype. I'm guessing 1,000 yards and 10 tds.
eta: but it's impossible to tell, he could easily finish with 400 yards and 3 tds. it's hard to tell with LEs.

I expect him to average around 30-40 yards a game as a change of pace back to Jeremy Hill.
400 yards rushing, 120 yards receiving, and around 4 TDs.

Any chance LF gets redshirted with Hill returning??? I hate to see Magee be the odd man out, he's really good too!

I expect LF7 to be a freshman starter and winning a Heisman before declaring for the NFL. This kid has so much hype around him. I hope he can take the pressure.
I'm not saying LF isn't CAPABLE of doing this, he may well be, but you hyping this beyond beleif for a freshman is beyond the point of ridiculousness.
