As good as Dilin Jones is

We can’t be that one dimensional at running back. We need a change of pace back as well and Jones needs a rest every now and then. He looked slow when they would go to him too many times on the same drive.

Nate Sheppard should have been the guy

If we could block anybody from guard to guard Jones would be All-SEC this year.

It’s not fatigue, he’s just not fast.
He’s already a damn good back but if you gave him top end speed and burst he would be a cheat code.

He's a fit for they system, but he's still a slightly above average back.

Jones goes hard everytime

Berry and Durham are light years behind Jones.

I agree, BUT LSU has bigger problems.
The problems Start with a SHITTY O-line, and bad play calling. But the bad play calling likely is due to trying to hide a shitty O-Line.

He’s the only top 40 rusher under 5 ypc. If not the only it’s like only another two and I think one is a qb.

I really like Jones...he's consistent for his style of play. He grinds out the tough yards and he never puts the ball on the ground
...but also dont like the fact that he's not explosive once he gets to the 2nd level. Maybe I just missed the days of having a RB that could break off a 50 yd run at any given time or a WR that will take the top off the defense.
Overall, this offense doesnt have any players that are a homerun threat type of talent. Harris has been solid, but he's not the WR1 type talent we're use to seeing at LSU.
