Congrats to JH33! He made the right decision. But how many running backs will be involved in spring practice. I believe Fournette is a fall enrollee. Unless both Kenny Hilliard and Alfred Blue stay, we will only have 1 running back based on the roster and that's Magee. There will certainly be a lot of reps for someone or a couple of people.

Everyone is forgetting about Darrel Williams.

According to the Rant, we'll be lucky to have one decent RB in the backfield. We might be last in the SEC in rushing.

Supposedly Hilliard is staying. Though these days that probably means he is sitting in his agents office filling out his paperwork as we speak.

Blue was given extra year. So 3 in spring, 5 in fall.

I don't think anyone is considering he isn't an EE

I don't think Hilliard's going anywhere.

Hopefully JH33's decision to leave will light a fire under his arse to tighten up and show what he's made of. We saw flashes of it his freshman year.

Hilliard situation doesn't change. He still has multiple mouths to feed.

Don't think Hill's decision plays into his whatsoever. With that said, I don't know what he's going to do.

Magee, LF, maybe Hilliard, Darrel Williams.

Very thin, especially when u consider what our passing game will be.

Staying healthy is very important

Blue was given an extra year but didn't he say he wasn't coming back?

And yet he chose to participate in Senior Day. That tells me he is thinking about leaving.

Honestly, those four can get the job done if they stay upright. That's still a pretty stud backfield.

Would be dumb for Blue to go IMO. Talked with a friend that's an agent and he said teams like Blue, but there isn't any film on him.

With two surgeries to his knees, I think blue is better off at least trying to get paid.

Hilliard could go too and have a good combine. Might get picked up as a FA.

Better than being 3rd string at Lsu

I think everyone is missing the point of the OP. Since neither LF or Williams are EE, then if Hilliard leaves, we will have 1 RB for spring practice. Unless we go 5 wide on all our scout teams, either Magee dies from exhaustion or someone has to make the move for at least the spring.
