False. Won't get the requisite carries.

Miles isn't going to run one guy 300 times unless we do it in a championship year. If he is that damn good, then he would need to average about 6.7ypc with 20 carries a game. That would put him at 2010 yards in a 15 game season. It can be done because we do run that much, but will it?
If he can manage over 1200 yards this year with more than 6.5 ypc, I'll give him the nod of getting 1800 his junior year.
My purple Kool aid and gold Google future that would put him up there with Walker, McFadden, and Jackson:
Freshman
180 atts 1350 14 TDs, 20 rec 275 yards 3 TDs
Sophomore
255 atts 1657 yards 18 TDs, 26 rec 315 yards 3 TDs
Junior
275 atts 1815 yards 20 TDs, 30 rec 400 yards 5 TDS
5th pick in the draft. 6'2 230 4.43 40.

Probably 800 as a freshman.
As a freshman, I'd say the over under has to be set at least at 1000.
- He has amazing talent
- 4/5ths of a road grating OL returns
- A coach that puts emphasis on the run
- 2 senior RBs who have never had even 100 carries in a season
- Breaking in a new young starter at QB, and starters, at WR
- History of past 4 years of SEC freshman running backs
This is only the rushing stats of the past 5 years of the top freshman SEC RBs
2009
Warren Norman - 145 atts 783 yards, 3 TDs
Trent Richardson - 144 atts 749 yards, 8 TDs
2010
Marcus Lattimore - 249 atts 1197 yards, 17 TDs
Michael Dyer - 182 atts 1093 yards, 5 TDS
2011
Isaiah Crowell - 185 atts 850 yards, 5 TDs
2012
Todd Gurley - 222 atts 1385 yards, 17 TDs
T.J. Yeldon - 175 atts 1108 yards, 12 TDs
Keith Marshall - 117 atts 759 yards, 8 TDs
Jeremy Hill -142 atts 755 yards, 12 TDs
2013
Alex Collins - 190 atts 1026 yards, 4 TDs
All of the ones under 1000, were limited by the amount of carries except for Crowell.

false, won't get enough touches
ANSWER.........Hill is better than Fornette... And He could have gotten 2,000 had Miles used him right....

False - 1700 to 1800 definitely in range, though.
2000/14 games would be 142+ per game.
1800/14 would be about 128/gm.
1700/14 would be about 121/gm.
2000/14 games would be 142+ per game.
1800/14 would be about 128/gm.
1700/14 would be about 121/gm.

fournette hasn't taken a college snap yet so you don't know that one way or another.
