Expectations for the running game next season?

LSU is going to have a stable of talented and young running backs.
How do you foresee the carries being split up?
Obviously Fournette is going to be the featured back, but who receives the most carries behind him?
It's going to be great to watch these guys develop over the next couple of years. The Tigers are in good hands with these kids.

hopefully not another year of run run run punt offense mixed in with our other offense, the run, run, pass punt offense.

LF getting 20+ carries and dominating the snaps.
Guice moves into that "Magee role" and the complementary back to LF. Great fit for that spot as well.
DWill becomes LFs top back-up and spells him when he is winded, similar to how he and Hilliard did this year.

if we continue with what we started in the Texas A&M game, we may generate a potent run game combined with a much better passing game. If we do that we could be in the hunt next season. I expect us to be in the hunt. Miles is slow to change but he is not stupid. Cam is probably not either but is yet to prove otherwise.

If Hawkins and Alexander both stay I can see these guys average about 250 ypg on the ground. If they both go, it may take half a season to get the OL situated, though the cupboard is full of young and talented OL.

All depends on the O-Line... The talent for RB is there, we just need the blockers..

Fournette goes all Jeremy Hill next year.
238 carries 1600 yards 18-20 TDs
Guice and Williams combine for 1000 yards and 12 TDs
IMO
Fournette 235-240 carries
QBs 125 carries
Guice 90 carries
Williams 75 carries
Rest 55 carries

I think a good part will also depend on our O-line. It's going to lose a lot.

Fournette the feature back. Williams' role will be similar with more short yardage and some goal line looks. Guice will get the 2nd most carries/touches IMO. If he can pick up some blocks, we may see him as a receiver on 3rd down a good chunk. I think Ducre will be next in line because I think his running style compliments our running style well. Brossette will get enough touches to impress.
2-5 could be in any order really. That's how I see it playing out, but most of these guys haven't even practiced yet.

LSU almost always has a Stable, they are limited because of the Jockey.

Nice dick comment. It's not even clever and makes no sense. The implication is dumb.

Don't think LF has the speed to rack up 1600. Hill had better breakaway speed and a good passing game to assist him in his 1400. We aren't gonna have that.

That depends. I would be surprised if Alexander doesn't go ahead and leave, but I am betting that the staff sells Hawkins on coming back. If he switches to LT next year, he can dramatically impact his draft position. The staff has a great example in Colins of what that extra year can mean.
Then there is the rumor that the staff has petitioned for a 6th year for Evan Washington. You never can predict how those will turn out. However, there is a shot that we will return 3 guys with starting experience next year, with an outside shot a 4.
Now, if everyone bails and we have to replace 4 guys at once, that is a tall order. We'll see.
