Hill is gone but I honestly think that Leonard can and will step in and be one of if not the best back in the sec. Yes he will be a true freshman but I truly belive that he will be even better than what we ecpect. He is a once in a lifetime player.

Still just a true freshman RB man, temper your expectations.
Hill had one of the greatest seasons in recent memory and we lost 3 games. Can't expect LF to do that in his true freshman year.

Fournette will have ample "space" to ease into that feature back role because of Magee. I wouldn't expect him to maintain that +7 yds/carry stat with more carries, but he's productive enough to shoulder some of the burden. And still have Hilliard.

Buga is an NFL back trapped in the age of a Freshman...

There are plenty of recent examples of freshman RB's in the SEC that have come in and been great right away. Lattimore and Gurley come to mind.

I didn't say he wouldn't be successful. I think he'll go for between 750-900 sharing major carries. That would be great for a true freshman. Don't kid yourself in thinking he'll be a workhorse back immediately with proven veterans on the team. Not how Les operates.
My point is Hill had one of the greatest rushing seasons in recent memories last year, but it doesn't automatically transfer to team success. My worry is that our passing efficiency will drop significantly where teams will load up the box on us and cause real problems for the offense.

Hill finished with 145 carries after only playing majorly in 8 games with Hilliard, Ware, Magee, and Ford ahead of him.
I see Fournette as the #2 from jump with about 170 carries.
