I was wondering with all of the RBs we could have next year, I was thinking that someone (Maybe Blue) could play a different position if possible to maybe see more playing time on the field.

Why on God's green earth would you want to see Alfred Blue go to Linebacker? Dude seriously, if he were to be moved anywhere. It would be to receiver.

Lots of talk on here that Blue would move to LB instead of RB when he got to LSU.

Blue is a Miles pet. He'll be getting 20 carries per in the next year or two. He might move Ford somewhere to clear more room for his pets.

Don't believe the hype. Who ever said that has pipe dreams. There's no way in hell Alfred Blue. A Phenomenal running back goes to linebacker. No way. Maybe receiver.

Blue carries last three weeks - 14
Ford carries last three weeks - 1

And even if you want to talk about Blue being a bit hobbled, Ford still has more carries on the year now. So I can only hope you were being sarcastic.

he has 3 more carries because he got 10 carries last game while Blue was hurt. Brilliant comeback.

Explain to me how a redshirt freshman who runs the ball well winds up behind a true freshman who does not in the pecking order if Les is not playing favorites?

Do you seriously think Alfred Blue will be on a site full or retards blurting out stupid shite like he's being moved to linebacker. Atleast, I hope he wouldn't waste his time like that. Me, I get a thrill off of stupid comments like that. Your asking Alfred Blue to be moved to linebacker is like asking Reuben Randle to be moved to safety. That just doesn't add up. Then the best you can do is say "oh, thats whats being said on the rant". Sick people on here.

Unlike you, I don't go assuming why a coaching staff gives cleanup carries to one talented young RB over another. Because any reasonable person would realize that their lame assumptions about backup and cleanup subs are probably wrong.

Ridley is the best RB on the roster right now. Ford is getting experience, Blue is getting experience. Complaining because you think the staff has a permanent preference for one backup RB over the RB you personally like more is beyond childish.

By the way, in my opinion, Spencer Ware and Alfred Blue will be running the tailback position next year. Ford is over rated.

blue is a true freshman rb who got on the field in the first game of the year. not many kids have the ability to get right on the field. it doesn't really matter what all the rantards think. the kid has shown he can contribute his first year on campus. pretty impressive.

I'm not knocking Blue in any way, but to say Ford is overrated at this point is just stupid. Both backs bring different styles, and both are very good IMO. Oh and you never know with changing positions, so I wouldn't go running your mouth like you're in the know...unless you are Blue. Are you?

2. Blue is nowhere near Ware or Ford

He's obviously picking up certain areas better than Ford. Whether it's blocking schemes, running routes, etc.. don't know.

All three have looked good at times. Ware, Blue, Ford.. I think you're the one playing favorites.

yes, Les' RB decision are always based on obvious rational reasons and not his love of people who remind him of Big Ten RBs from the 1970s
