if he played in a offense with a functional passing game, he would have broken several records.
A) LF broke several records
B) LF spent the majority of his career behind a QB that couldn't hit moving golf carts.
Wasting his touches when QB is terrible at hot routes, screens, and wheels would've been the huge disservice to LF that Spears and you guys would be complaining about today.

rational thought has no place in the rant. it doesn't matter that LF was the feature player for lsu,had one of the best careers in lsu history and ran behind a great oline built to maul people. it doesn't matter that in both his sophomore and junior years lsu was top 3 in rushing yards before contact.

Leonard Fournette holds the LSU records for:
Single Season Rushing Yards
Record for consecutive 100 yard games
Single Season Record for 100 yard games
Single Season and Career Record for 200 yards games
Broke Single game record for rushing yards (later broken by Guice)
Single Season Record for rushing yards per game
Single Season record for TDs

Any LSU record he didn't break was due to the fact that the guys in front of him played for 4 seasons. He also missed half of his junior season with an injury sustained in practice. Nothing about Les Miles' style of play would have changed the records he didn't break. Had he played 4 years like Faulk did, he would have shattered every record Faulk still holds
