Does anyone still believe that Jeremy Hill is/was a better back than Fournette?

I am just at a lack for words... I have never witnessed a back with the talent and drive that Fournette possesses. DVR every game and do not erase a second, because you will be telling your grandchildren about the next two years.

Fournette looks like the Heisman front runner right now and he is a Sophomore, Hill was never in the Heisman conversation. So no it's not even close.

Lol. Diesel was great but Jeremy and LF are dynamic also. Ashame diesel was a fricking rock.

yes.

if we must break it down, Hill's vision is on another level. As great as LF is, he still misses some holes and cutbacks. Splitting hairs, but in the long run Hill's talent plays a little better, imo

Earl, Bo, Herschel. When they were on their games, Alley and Cecil were pretty special too.

No, Hill is a great player but Fournette is on a another level rarely seen. He's in the category with Bo and Hershel.

Lester does....while Hill was an amazing talent. He didn't bring the physical running style Fournette does and that is what separates him.

We should not even be debating this now we have had great Rb's even during the curley's H. years. Hill is a great back now and was at LSU. LF is great also. Diesel was great but didn't have the speed of Hill or LF.

Fournette has had better games than hill and he is only 2 games into his sophomore season.

yea man. I also saw Guice get 9 YPC. Is he better than Hill too?

Auburn's run defense sucks.

LF had a game for the ages, no doubt. As great as he was he still left yards on the table. Missed a few holes & cutbacks. That shite matters against good defenses.

I agree I think hill could have been a Heisman candidate also. His role was different with Metts at qb. I believe LF is the centerpiece of LSU'S offense now.

I said this yesterday. He had a monster game and still missed a few and dived straight into the line of scrimmage instead.

they are both great, and currently it's an unfair comparison, When Fournette goes pro after the 2016 season, than we can talk about who was better. I will be surprised if Lournette doesn't end up with a Heisman when he goes pro.
