Not concerned about Fournette (possibly) resting; we've got Guice

Cartoon form
But seriously, the kid is a jaw-dropping "wow" player. Clearly Fournette is, too. Fournette will drop dudes, make cuts, break away, and is so light on his feet for a power guy. But damn, Guice just pops out of traffic like the greased-up deaf guy. Five people on him? No big deal: shakes one, spins the next, slips through two, and sprints away from the last.
His first touchdown run against Mizzou, like that electrifying fun against Auburn last year, have me none too concerned about Leonard taking another week off. I know our o-line is beat up this week, but apparently Florida's d-line is at least as bad off. Oh, and Williams and Brosette should do just fine, too.
Defense shows up, too, like last week, and I think we go 2-0 with Coach O and the Tigers.

My only concern is feeling bad about not fully utilizing his collegiate career.

They need to rest 7 as long as he needs to do that he's healthy. If Miles would have rested him to begin with he'd be ready by now.

At the very least Guice should have been rotating with Fournette this year especially since Fournette was playing hurt! How could Miles not see that??

Let him rest the rest of the season. He's a lock on the NFL, he doesn't have any room to raise his stock. Finish year with Guice and Williams

My thoughts as well. As soon as it began apparent that Fournette wasn't winning the Heisman this year, Guice should have started seeing more playing time. It's not like sharing rotations with Guice is going to hurt his draft stock. He could sit out the rest of the year and will still go top 5. Guice is the one that needs to prove something to the scouts.

Don't be. College is just the forced path to the NFL and a nice paycheck.

I wouldn't mind seeing Fournette get off until Ole Miss give a real shot to get healed.

I would prefer he rest if he needs it. I like seeing the entire team spread it around.

My pipe dream: O moves Ducre from FB to RB.
