Is J. Hill the best since Faulk???

I'm really excited about this kid. There have been a lot of great prospects since, but he is really special. Ridley was an unsung hero in my opinion, but Hill may be our next Faulk.

He really looks like something special. But then again so did Justin Vincent in 2003.

He's the best back since Hilliard last November.

Pump the brakes!

He looks to be very special. Don't hype him up and let him do his thing.

Hopefully injuries won't sideline him nor will he spend to many nights at Bogies.
We were asking the same thing about JV.

If he stays healthy for the next two years, certain 1st rounder - I think he only gets better - so yes, the best since KF!

Not yet. Not even close.
Faulk was arguably the best ever.
Hill may be the best since Hester or Ridley, both of whom were 1,000 yard backs.

I thought that guy from Utah state was better? Tac? Thoughts? And what you mean we have had good running backs? Aren't you a la tech guy or did you hope onto our bandwagon

He is good , but he is no Faulk. Kevin was special and Tiger nation will always appreciate what he did here.

You are kidding, right? This kid does not hit the hole, sort of dances when he gets to the line and no opening is available. Compare his running style to Ware and you would agree with me that his carries should decreased dramatically

I think we all said the same thing about Hilliard last year. Posted on 11/21/12 at 8:23 am to BabyTac
Not really. The one thing he does that stands out is when there is no where to run he just picks a small gap and dives forward for extra couple of yards. That sets him apart from our other backs. He also has break away speed similar to Ford. Not even close to Faulk in terms of making 1st guy miss but he's good.

I think every couple years a player comes in and looks fantastic. He needs to be consistent now and moving forward.
Alley Broussard
Justin Vincent
Those are only 2 examples of guys who looked fantastic.

You can't compare any Running Back in the 2000's to Kevin Faulk.
If you want to compare Hill to someone, check out Joseph Addai, who I think has been the best running back in the last decade of LSU football.
ETA: I take that back, you can compare DD to Faulk. Both did it all, and did it extremely well.

Hilliard sure did disappear

WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too early for such a statement.

1 year ago this week -- SEVERAL Rantards were ready to crown Hilliard as the next coming.
Why don't we let him play out his career and THEN assess how it measures up to Tiger greats.
I'm not slamming you... just not ready to compare a freshman that has played in about 6-7 games as "best since" a guy that is on the list of Top 10 in SEC HISTORY, that's all.
