I don't see him getting that many reps in the 1st half. FIFY



I just don't see him getting that Many carries so soon. Look at Hill's 1st year he was basically a blocking back until the South Carolina game.

You don't recruit the number one player in the nation and then barely play him. (Unless he isn't putting in the work which won't be the case with LF7) Totally different animal then Hill.

Hill's situation.
-One year not playing or practicing any football
-Alfred Blue, Kenny Hilliard, Spencer Ware, Michael Ford, Terrance Magee ahead of him
-North Texas
-redshirt junior QB
-4 of 6 leading WRs returning, all with at least 5 catches, one with 41
-

Fournette's situation
-6'1 226 sub 4.5 40, WR hands, just played football a couple months ago
-Terrance Magee, regressed Kenny Hilliard ahead of him
-Wisconsin team that brings back 3/4ths of their starting secondary, but zero of their starting front 7
-True freshman or 1 start sophomore QB
-8 returning catches from two WRs
-4/5th of a road grating OL

I mean all signs point to him being needed really badly. It's like last year when we thought we wouldn't need Hill early, then game one showed us different.
