Do you feel Tiger fans are putting unfair expectations on LF for next season?

I think he has the potential to be a special back for LSU, but come on....some of the things I am hearing on this board are just crazy.
Do you really think he steps in as a true freshman and just dominates the SEC? Give it time and he will get there, but to expect it from the start is crazy.

He put it on himself saying he wants the Heisman.

It's not unreasonable to think he can be one of the best RBs in the SEC next season. Gurley, Hill, Lattimore, Yeldon, etc. all excelled as freshmen.
But to expect it from any freshman is a little silly.

This.
However, him more than any other recruit, has the potential to live up to them. He is already refined in every aspect of the game. He is already the perfect size and has the speed and strength of an NFL RB. I hope Les staggers him into the lineup the first few weeks before giving him the majority of the load.
This kid AT WORST will be a very good SEC running back (barring injury).

Yes, yes they are.
He could very well come in and dominate the SEC like you said, but expecting it before he even sets foot on campus is ridiculous.

People are definitely counting on him a lot. If he doesn't perform to the unrealistic expected level he will be the scapegoat of the rant

This is what I'm afraid of. Our offense will probably look like 2010 as opposed to 2013. We will need to run the ball and if we can't I can see a lot of rantards coming out of the wood works to bash him.

Yes.
Most did the same to Mett in his first year starting. 19-23 y/o football players try to do too much to live up to those expectations and they don't do what got them to that level.

yes. I look for him to have about 600-700 yards next year.
Posted on 1/21/14 at 10:55 am to TabledTiger
Heisman or bust

Is Fournette an early enrollee?
Posted on 1/21/14 at 11:02 am to silstang23
No.
Most people think Magee is going to start at the beginning of the season, If LF was an EE would that make things different??

Absolutely too much pressure on him already.
It's a shame really. But when he doesn't meet the 1,600 yard, 22 TD expectation, it'll all be Miles' fault, of course.

It's not as if LF is going to shrink under the pressure of Rant expectations. This kid knows the scoop. He can handle all of this b.s.
