No. I think the ones who think he does great are exactly like the ones who saw Hilliard go from back of the pack his true freshman year, to scoring 9 TDs in 6 games.

Or saw true freshman Hill run for 740 yards and 12 TDs in 8 games his true freshman year. BTW, each backfield had four other players, almost all with two years more of experience.

Or maybe they've seen that since 2010 there has been a true freshman back in the SEC with at least 850 yards rushing. Or maybe the fact that 5 true freshman backs since 2010, have gone over 1000 yards rushing, in the SEC alone.




Who cares about our expectations? They aren't hurting him. Every year, these players are coming out more and more prepared, and are putting up gaudy numbers in year one. I'm going to believe he totals 1200-1500 yards and 14-16 TDs until he doesn't.
