If you have these 2 backs and knowing what I have seen out of Miles its hard to believe that our 2 backs are not going to be Hilliard and Hill and then the rest.

I don't think Ware's body can take the punishment he has been taking.

Ware catches the ball out of the backfield pretty good and that could be his thing next year or Shep could take that position so he can get more touches.

Ware delivers the BOOM. Maybe even looks to dish out a pop too often.

Ware has plenty left in him. Besides, I doubt Hill comes in and overtakes Blue or Ford.

Hilliard, Blue, Ford, Ware, Magee, now Hill.....

No.

We don't need a scat back. All our guys are bruisers. We ain't Florida.

I don't care who is the starter... As long as LSU is averaging 3+ ypc, the backs protect mettenberger, and the tigers are winning ball games I'm happy

This backfield needs zero adjustment.

I would be surprised if Hill doesn't redshirt to break up the logjam that is our back field.

I mean, has Hill even played football in 2 years? Now he is going to overtake proven SEC caliber starters?

Ware will be the #1 starter again. He delivers the pain and almost always gets positive yardage. He is sure handed, athletic, and picks up blitzes like a boss.

I will never understand how people want to replace him. When that dude gets stuffed at the line he always spins out or lowers a shoulder and gains 2 or 3.

People are stupid. Hill will obviously redshirt, especially at the weight he just reported in at and with him being covered in rust.

Ware was the worst of our top 4 backs and Rantards like you overrate him because he would rather hit a guy 3 yards in the backfield than run through a hole. There's a reason his YPC was so low.

I personally hope that we redshirt Hill honestly. There's 5 rbs who have proved their worth. There's just not enough to go around

Yes, and that reason is because he and Hilliard were the only backs that they ran between the tackles last year. He ran different play sets than the other backs by design. Ford and the others ran almost exclusively to the outside.
