Not saying anything against LF, but on the field so far he doesn't look like the fastest guy out there.
Because rbs are taught to be slow to fast through. Which means slow to the line and let the hole develop then fast through it. You dont want rbs sprinting straight into your line.

Yes, I think the RB's at LSU are taught to let the hole develop, then really turn on the jets.
But as far as LF returning kicks, I have to agree with the opening post--I don't really like the idea of his doing this. LSU has lots of team speed & they will depend upon Leonard a lot to carry the load on the offensive running plays, more & more as the season progresses. There are many more snaps on regular offensive plays, so I think he should focus on this area, where he can be most valuable to the team.

These knuckleheads don't know a WR on a fly pattern is obviously going to be faster that a RB running through 8-9 men and avoiding or running through contact. For those who know what they are looking at, LF looks plenty fast. Those are people trying to find a fault.
LF has looked to me to be everything he was alleged to be. I see the special talent he is and don't understand why others can't. Did anybody notice him break the DB's ankles? Or the multiple guys he has trucked? Or that he always goes forward after contact? Or his great hands? Or that the other team seems to give him special attention? Once he settles in get ready for some special moments.
