Leonard just needs to do what he's been doing his entire football career and he'll be fine. Everyone belived he was going to look like Adrian Peterson whipping arse with a branch from day one. In time his talents will mesh with expectations.

Actually they probably won't. The expectations were set waaaayyy too high for LF. He will be a good back for LSU and one day may end up being all-SEC, but he'll never be the AP type of back people were saying he'd be. He's just not that quick, elusive or good.

Peterson was also given enough carries and rhythm to get going early. We have a back come in for 3 plays, take him out, th3 another back for 3-4 plays, take him out, so on and so forth. It is insanely idiotic how we are using them. Make one guy the main back, the second his backup, and the 3rd/4th as relief/change of pace.
