I would love to have Leonard but this game but would much rather have him for Ole Miss. If he sits this week and next I don't see how he isn't 100% for Ole Miss.

We only get Fournette for so little games left...

Id love for him to suit up for the Tigers as much as he can in his last season at LSU

Guice era may be beginning early than scheduled. I'll ride with Derrius, Dwill and Nick all day.

Frustrating...BUT...Fournette's Lingering/hagging injury can heal up near 100% in time for Bama...then watch out!

There is always the possibility that since he has missed so much playing time this season, he may decide to come back for his senior season, since this year has not panned out as he expected.

Guice at 100% > LF7 at 60%

Fournette wasn't healthy and Les continued to play him. Rest him up for November.

I agree, let him sit until Piss. Then he has another week off before the Bama game, he will be fully healthy, and will be ready to go beast mode

I would too, but he's clearly been hurt for a while, and like it or not, he's got a future to consider that much more important than LSU's 2016 season.

There is zero possibility of that. The man is banged up and will have the option to go make make millions or come back to college and get banged up even more? Not gonna happen.

You say this as if Les was playing him against his will. I'd imagine Les left it up to Fournette. I know it's fun to shite on Miles and his decision making - mostly well earned - but with a guy like LF I doubt many coaches would handle it any different.

takes a lot longer than that for a high angle sprain to heal. he won't be near 100% at all this year, except for maybe the bowl game.

Do the right thing, O. Move Ducre back to the RB spot.

No one will disagree with this, BUT Les shouldn't have left it up to LF7, he will want to play regardless. Les should have left it up to the trainers, which is what Coach O is doing.
