While he didn’t tab Ford by name, Miles gave strong indication that No. 42 was the man in question.
“There’s a freshman tailback that we’ve considered taking the redshirt off,” admitted Miles.
The fifth-year coach continued, giving his take on who’ll be the backfield bell cow this weekend against Arkansas.
“Stevan Ridley certainly gets the lion’s share of those snaps … We’re getting some other guys ready for two-back offense and running some traditional runs, off-tackle and iso with some other guys.”

If I were Ford, I'd refuse to go in. Maybe sprain an ankle in warm-ups or something. If Miles does this, it would be the right up there with the dumbest things he's done.

It's not like he burned the redshirt giving him a few carries in a meaningless blowout against Tulane. Miles is down to his 4th string RB in Ridley for crying out loud. Besides, no position player in all of professional sports has a shorter shelf life than an NFL running back. They are pretty much done by the time they hit 30. If Ford is as good as advertised, he sure as hell isn't going to spend 5 years at LSU anyway. And if he's not as good as advertised, why are you so concerned about him losing his redshirt?

This will be dumber than his greatness in coaching the Ole Miss game if he does something thoughtless and selfish like this.
