Ford will transfer.........just a prediction!
I hope he does and it breaks my heart.
I know him personally and have been looking forward to this year (actually to last year) since he was a sophomore in high school.
To see him ride the pine with no chance of playing is pretty disheartening to me.
I haven't seen him but once since he went to LSU but he was still upbeat then - almost two years ago.
The kid is a fantastic person - polite, clean cut, dedicated, and in high school he was the entire team - with a little help could have led us to a title.
I haven't seen where he has fouled up at practice - only that he 'doesn't know the playbook.' I find that hard to believe, but don't discount it entirely.
However it is hard to reconcile that situation with his performance in the spring game.
I is even harder to believe that Blue is better than him to the extent that as a true freshman he would 'earn' to play before Ford.
I had never heard of him before he entered the game last week. Still don't even know where he is from. I certainly didn't see him do anything Ford couldn't do as well or better.
Color me confused.
But now I want Ford to play some football - if not here, then somewhere else.

So just because you know ford means that he should play over blue because you don't know who he is? Great logic.
I dont get lsu fans. Everyone complains when they think miles doesnt play the younger players and when he does people complain. I don't know how anyone can complain about the running game yesterday unless you just hate miles and bash everything he does.

Blue is from Hahnville. He was a pretty good back in HS last year, can remember one game where they down with little time left and he basically willed them to victory, carried a whole drive by himself and scored a TD on a 4th and about 4 after breaking 3 tackles. I listened to it on the radio, announcers were in awe.
That being said, I have been looking forward to seeing Ford play with more anticipation than anyone since Kevin Faulk. I know you can't live off what a kid did in high school, but for pete's sake, the kid broke all of Cecil Collins' rushing records and we all know what Cecil could have accomplished had he stayed out of trouble. I am gonna be very disappointed if Ford doesn't start getting some carries that matter within the next game or two. I refuse to believe that Blue has learned more of the playbook than Ford given that Ford has been there a substantial time longer.
Keiland got jacked around for playing time (my opinion), God forbid the coaches find a way to screw up Ford's career and make it a two-fer.
