re: Anyone else think LF shouldn't be returning kickoffs?

I agree that we need a different KR. It just isn't a good fit.
Fournette doesn't have the moves or quickness to be a threat, and I'm not sure he has the raw speed either. Basically, he just takes the ball and slams into the pile.
So, that leads to several things. First off, he might end up getting hurt. He doesn't seem to try to avoid head-on collisions much, if at all. Secondly, he's then wasted for the 1st offensive play of the drive. Even if he's out there, he's a little winded.

I am not that worried about LF getting extra all purpose yards for a trophy campaign, I am worried about LSU winning games. LF is going to be a fine or even great RB. He hasn't shown much on kick returns and most are not returnable anyway.I'm not that worried about injury as I am production. We had Odell last year doing both punts and KOs and he was outstanding. You could argue that he was as important to LSU last year as LF is this year.
