Les Miles Talks About Balancing Leonard Fournette's Carries With His NFL Future

No doubt that LF is a beast, who comes across as humble and an extremely hard worker. Right now he is the best player in College football and no one is a close second. I hope that his exposure, and Heisman trophy, does not create an impossible situation for him. The hype and superstar attention around Johnny Manzel made it impossible for him to attend classes or have a "normal" college experience. While LF is nothing like Manzel, I hope LF is allowed to enjoy college and the experience that LSU offers a student athlete.

When have you heard the media clamoring for a sophomore to turn pro, while at the same time predicting the demise of LSU Football for the last 10 years under les miles.

College football is too big of a business for "pitch counts". This isn't like NCAA baseball where only 20 people watch and pitchers' futures need to be preserved.

I hate that his career is turning into a conversation about NFL ability. I hope Fournette makes a fortune, but I really don't give two shite about the NFL. It's an over-produced blur of commercial bullshite that takes itself way too seriously.
