So is he not better than hill and hillard at the same stage in their careers, LE?



He may be; but he's not 2x's better. The gap isnt that big.

Hilliard ran for 4800 yards & 66 TDs combined in his soph and JR years.


Fournettes explosiveness compared to Hillard makes him a better prospect, but was he a better player at that point in his career? Certainly debatable

I didnt follow Hill as a JR but i know he had a monster SR year. Honestly on film they are very similar.

He's in the same league as backs like AP and T Rich were in high school imo. The kid will be the #1 player in America.

If you think the gap between those guys and hill/hilliard aren't that significant then that's just your personal opinion.

But to suggest its because of the Internet, when recruiting has been a big deal online for almost a decade, is just retarded.
