Over - Under on how many carries Holliday gets. .

I say...
About 3 a game
3 a game X's 14 games = 35 to 40 carries.
I think he should get the ball a minimum of 5 times a game. When you have a guy like him with world class speed . . . . use him. If only Trindon wouldn't have fumbled his first punt return as a frosh........Miles wants to use him, but use him more for a decoy and that sucks in my opinion. What you say?

IM gonna go out on a limb here and say here averages 7 carries a game.

I feel the need to point out 3x14=42 not 35-40...
Though I do like that you put it at 14 games, which means you put LSU in the SECCG...
I'm going to say 63 (4-5 carries a game).

If he stays healthy, he gets five a game. He only had 21 carries last year, but Miles said that he was going to use him more this season at RB.

He said that last year I think

More than any of you are saying. Holliday is one of many players who were limited last year due to the QB situation. It isn't difficult to figure.

I would guess that he will get 3 to 4 carries per game.

personally i think he has been mis-utilized. For me it isnt so much the number of carries but the fact that it is OBVIOUS when he will get a carry. Basically if he goes into the game, its likely he will get a carry.
I think he is just as valuable as a decoy.
Im also tired of hearing the excuse of him not returning punts because he cant catch. He's had 4 yrs now. Its no longer a valid excuse. He needs to be returning our punts all the time... there is absolutely nobody better than him when he hauls it in.

I would say over. He should get about 50 carries this year.
We have to use him more

It's amazing in games where he would rip off 10-12 yards/carry. He would not set foot back on the field again. He's more than a decoy. TH is a legit threat at RB! He is underutilized because of so much talent on the field!

I would like to see him get some carries between the tackles. Obviously limited because his body cannot take the pounding but if he can get to the second level he would be gone.
Posted on 8/5/09 at 10:13 am to Raparooot
he will get the ball a lot, he will return kicks and punts, he will get about 3 or 4 carry's, and if he does well he will get more. He will also get thrown to some

Under - but they will use him as a decoy to get the defense moving and they will use him on screens

TH averaged 5.4 ypc last year, which was the same as Charles Scott.

I believe Shepard will cut into his opportunities. I think less that 3 per game on offense. Hopefully he's returning KO's and hopefully those opportunities will be less due to our defense being better.
