Will Blue be in the "doghouse"?
Posted on 9/19/10 at 8:36 pm

This thread is in no way is to trash him . I was just wondering if anyone else noticed his "blocking" ? If he rides the bench it should be for his lack of picking up his blocking assignments.He truly looks like he will be a special back when its all said and done. I just think our backs need to support the passing game better. I hope Ware gets more carries if so.

I'm still trying to figure out what Ford did to drop down on the depth chart.

no !!!!!!
Les has made his mind up about him in the same way he has made his mind up about JJ

I saw when he missed his blocking assignment that got jefferson nailed in the back. If ford is blocking worst than him then lord help us. Blue looked very explosive but the spring game ford had sticks in my head. I really thought we could use him this year.

I'll be honest. I think Blue will be very good someday, but I don't get why he's getting this PT

The only reason I could see would be picking up his blocking assignments..I think a lot of people on here don't understand how important that is.

This was in response to why Ford isn't playing.

JJ got sacked once last night,,, and Bleu was in the back field when this happened (TO BLOCK!!!) Bleu was supposed to pick up the outside blitz but did not touch him, and JJ got crushed by “Blue’s assignment!”
So,,,,
Is wrong,,,,
How could Ford be any worse?
And the fact that Blue has fumbled at least twice in 3 games holds no water either,,, with most real Tiger Fans...
Whatever BS hang up Miles had with Kieland Williams the last few years, I'm afraid hold true for Ford as well. I just hope he's taking it well, keeps his head together and practices hard till he gets his chance, because the dude is a BEAST! There is ZERO reason Ford should not be getting some carries by now. He would compliment S. Ridley, like Richardson does Engram at Bama... IMO
See What Ford did to LSU’s Defense in the spring game (it’s on YOUTUBE to see if you wish) ,,, and last I heard LSU has a damn good D this season!

Les thinks Ford is not as good as the other backs. This is why Ford needs to get the heck out of here. Enough on that. Les is not gonna punish Blue because he believes in Blue. Les does not believe in Ford. If Blue or Ridley were going in the doghouse Ford would have played more already. Ford is done at LSU and Blue is here for the long haul. Once Les makes a call on a player it's pretty much not gonna change.

he was incredibly talented out of highschool, he's getting beat out by 2 different true freshman.
he'll get his snaps this week after Blue fumbled again imo, but if he doesn't shine i don't want him to play.

yeah,,,if he doesn't get anymore touches he should look to transfer,,,cuz ridley will be back,,,i think murphy is back, blue, ware, gore, hill, hilliard,,,,maybe things change but if he wants to end up like K. W undrafted with his skillset,,,then be my guest. .

I think Blue should be in the doghouse - a little bit. He should still get some carries because you don't want to screw up his confidence, but he should lose a couple carries to Ford and Ware. Who knows with crazy-arse Miles.

JJ wasn't sacked when Blue missed the assignment, the sack game when Jefferson escaped but was run out of bounds before he got to the line of scrimmage. It counts as a sack and it was for a loss of 2 yards.

Hopefully not. Blue's a pretty good runner.

Murphy aint back. I'm wondering why Ford hasn't been playiing but Miles has made up his mind on ol Blue and he's pretty good so....I mean....I'd like to see Ford but whatever there is no arguing this.

if he's getting beat out by true freshman this early in the season he either has to step up his game or get out

How is it that Ford was awesome in HS and awesome in the spring and yet can't sniff the field during regular games? This kid is as talented as they come and either Les isn't motivating him, is not coaching him up or he is injured. Les needs to own up to what the hell is going on with Ford.
