Why does everyone assume Fournette will get more touches than Magee?

I dont get it. I know he is a beast. He has the potential to be an all-time great at LSU. At the same time, it's not as if he's walking into a starting job. Does anyone else think Magee will get more total touches this year than Fournette?

Or Hillard for that matter.
Also...haven't really heard much at all from the coaches about him. It's always about Magee, Hillard and even williams

Because people always rather look forward to what could be than to appreciate what already is.
Same reason true freshmen are always asked about more than redshirt freshman when looking for new contributors.

Because he is LF.

This.
They read about LF 100 times a day on here and then reality starts to go away about what will most likely happen next Saturday.

Magee will have the most IMO. Not sure it'll last throughout the season, though. I really can't wait to see him play. Poor man's Ray Rice.

People gonna be fricking mad when Williams comes in instead of LF. No different then how blue came in his freshmen year instead of Ford or Ware. Can't wait to see the meltdown LOL.

Because he will be more involved in the passing game than the other 2.
Honestly, I see all 3 guys having their moments throughout the year. The attitude of all of the rbs seem good. I think Hilliard really gets back on the map this season. I also think Williams will add some punishing touches.

I wont be mad. I'll be excited because Williams was an absolute monster in High School as well.

and skipped taking a RB in the recruiting class the year before this one

yeah certainly an underrated player for us...we should be so lucky to have a player like DWill on this team along with Fournette...that's a great one/two punch of the future....

Let's see people are calling him the next Adrian Peterson and Miles compared him to MJ

We have all heard how great he is or will be. We think back to those great backs that we are hoping he will equal and know that if he is that good then there is no reason for him to be behind the current backs we have. They are good backs and may both be playing on Sunday's, but their are not Kevin Faulk or Adrian Peterson which is what we are hopeful that LF is.

Wat? Ware was a serious tweener...he really was not that good at the end of his career here. Loved his violent running style during 2011 though...always thought ford was under utilized. And I'm not saying LF won't get in the game...just that morons will be bitching because Williams is in instead of him at the time.
