re: Anyone else secretly believe Darrel Williams could be as good or better than LF?

I'd love to hear a convincing argument for this. He did physically mature unusually early and that allowed him to put up very nice career numbers against other young teenagers, but what glaring physical advantages does he possess over starting SEC defensive players?
While he looks great for an 18 year old, this isn't like Lebron James coming out of HS and still being dramatically bigger, stronger faster than all the other pro players.

A) the same ones Williams has and more.
B) you assume he physically matured early and will now cease to mature further. I offer up the notion that he matured more and will continue to do so

Well, the dude is 230 lbs and finished 1st in Class 4-A in the 100 by running a 10.68. He was named track MVP as well. You just don't see that. His balance and coordination for his size is awesome too. He ran for 255 yards against top ranked John Curtis last year and caught the winning 2-point conversion. He is the only person to ever be named Louisiana Mr. Football twice.
The truth is that you never know what a person will do because the SEC is a huge step up. However, he has some rare tools that could make him a rare player.

Dude. LF is like 6'1" @ 230 and runs a sub 4.5
I don't recall damn near ANY back with those measurables.
However, I think we could be looking at a DMAC/Felix jones type situation.

I know you are related, or friends, or girlfriend of Williams, but please just stop. Fournette is bigger than Adrian Peterson while Peterson isn't that much faster than him coming out of high school. He's bigger and faster, and more shifty than Lattimore, Dyer, Gurley, Yeldon, and Collins, coming out of high school. You know, the last five 1000 yard SEC freshman rushers? They had no problem ripping up the SEC behind various levels of lines from day one. None of their lines come close to the run blockers we have at LSU. I mean in addition to the OL, we have a beast of a fullback, and a Titan of a TE (6'5 295).
There is not one dominant defensive line on our schedule. We have a few mediocre-decent, but none are just a lot better than others. All our RBs will feast.

Well he is 18 and 230. And also very fast.

Lebron wasn't dramatically bigger coming out of high school. he as about pro size.
LF is pro size now. As a freshmen. And he is only gonna get better
