will get 25 carries against Wisconsin react when he is brought on slowly and likely not become a starter all year or at least to the very end of the year?


then he's clearly overrated and he should be cut from the team

and miles should be fired for poor recruiting

just about everyone on this site anointing LF as the best RB ever in a tiger uniform and maybe even the GOAT in college football. Although I think very highly of LF and think he will end up being a great college RB, how will the fans who think he will get 25 carries against Wisconsin react when he is brought on slowly and likely not become a starter all year or at least to the very end of the year?


We will remind them that they haven't paid attention to how Les Miles coaches and they will call us names, curse, and accuse us of not being a true fan.

I don't think he will be "brought on slowly" when he completely fires out the gates. I love people trying to be "realistic" about LF.

LSU has never had a running back like Leonard Fournette

I think he will and I haven't seen any disrespect towards him on here. Most just feel LF is good enough to share the load with TM from day one. In today's game you need 2 great backs. If anyone is left out somewhat, it'll be Hilliard but in all probability, he too, will get his carries.

Dude, I have high expectations for him, but how can you say this after watching Jeremy Hill?

Who is saying this shite? Yall keep saying people are saying this, but you are the only ones saying it. Nobody talks about him being the best RB ever. Nobody is saying he'd get 25 carries a game, only idiots like you keep bringing that up.

If LF is anywhere close to Hill we should all be ecstatic.

He had a bad year last year. Your mom on the other hand, just blows. Shame on everyone who allowed her to continue doing what she loves.

He means they aren't being realistic. We have literally four RBs. Hilliard has not improved at all and Magee has a little more than 100 carries in 3 years. Fournette was not only the #1 RB recruit in America, but the #1 overall recruit. When is the last time you have seen a #1 overall player of anything be brought in slowly? If by slowly you mean 10-12 carries a game, then yes.

We don't know what Magee could do this year. He could dominate, then again, he could regress like others have. Hill has been the only player since Scott who hasn't went backwards on year two of getting decent carries.

I choose to believe we have two 1000 yard rushers in Magee and Fournette.
