Think about it like this, Hill had 203 carries, played in 12 games, but only played 3 quarters total in his first two games. So he roughly played 11 games. That's 127.27 yards a game, 18.45 carries a game, and 1.45 TDs a game.

Had he played all 13 games, you are looking at roughly 1650 yards and 18-19 TDs on 240 carries, with about 200 receiving yards. Those are incredible stats to be sure, but unless they are coming from a QB, he probably won't be a heisman finalist. He'd have to be in the 1700-1800 yard range like Mason with 20+ rushing TDs and possibly 3-4 hundred receiving yards just to be a finalist.

I could see Fournette getting 18-20 carries a game easily in 2015 and 2016 along with a shite ton of receptions. He'll definitely get the carries, he just needs to produce.
