We barely see any RB besides CEH

And TDP looks better at this point.

Hopefully we run Ole Miss and Arkansas our the building and both Freshmen get some carries.

So in other words. None of you guys actually know why Emery isn't getting anymore touches.

The Joe Borrow doesn't want him on the field because of one missed assignment is ridiculous. That hasn't come out of anyone's mouth.

Also, Just because Clyde is playing lights out, he does need to come out for a breather. Why they are using Price instead of Emery is still a mystery .

Yes, Everyone knows who watches the games knows that clyde is the Man! , We get that.

The excuse about Emery needing to get in the weight room is laughable. Dude is bigger and faster than Price.

The OP just asked if anyone knew the "real Reason" and you guys start blasting him about Clyde's ability.

Jezzz

Yeah.
I am trying to find something in my post which suggests carries should have been taken from CEH.
Truth is, most here expected to see a lot from Emery and he has disappeared and isn't even getting carries equal to Davis Price.
Put more directly: has he disappointed compared to what we expected?

If Emery wants to be the man next year, follow Burrow's example. Hit the weights, get stronger, and work every day during the off season to learn play book and execute the plays with Brennan.
Every LSU fan is hoping he lives up to his reputation.

Nitwit.

A lot of these guys on this post were the first ones bitching about clyde early in the year about his lack of speed..

Now they all over his jockstrap.

You mention " what' up with emery' they all get so defensive about Clyde.

You never said anything about clyde taking less reps.

It isn’t hard to figure out.

When he has played he missed assignments and he fumbled.

He’s currently behind 2 guys who are better.

There is no conspiracy against him for fricks sake. He just isn’t good enough to get meaningful PT right now.

Why is that so hard for you idiots to understand?

Fans expectations have zero bearing on playing time.

He is not the first 5 star recruit to get on campus and suddenly find he’s not the best and baddest anymore.

I sense you need a more basic explanation. Think about it this way - even if you are the best RB in the state when you leave high school - when you then go to a major program, there will likely be 3 guys there who were also the best in the state, but who are older than you and have experience practicing and playing at the college level. It’s never a given that a freshman can contribute at a high level. There is a significant advantage to age and experience.

Because Clyde is a beast and TDP is more ready. That's it

He’s faster but objectively smaller. And Price has looked like the better back at this point. It’s not a mystery why he’s getting more carries.

I don't understand why folks get their panties in a wad when someone ask why our 5-Star running back can't get on the field in some capacity. Nobody is suggesting that he should start over CEH.

It takes time for a player to adjust to the college level

I was listening to Whiskey and Wine and Moscona said that Burrow doesnt want him in right now. He missed a screen pass and Burrow got lit up.



Burrow told him to get off his fricking field in the middle of a game after he missed an assignment that destroyed a play

Very Brady-esque

1. Clyde rarely ever comes out for a breather. We aren’t exactly running in between the tackles 30 times a game either. This is the main reason. CEH and Burrow have 201/319 rushing attempts.

2. TDP has looked better than Emery and he still barely gets any touches. I would Love to see Emery get more catches in space, but he’s young.

Those are the reasons

No he's not. Price is clearly more physically "there". He looks like a junior out there.

And Orgeron said Emery needed some work in the weight room.

And you can actually see on tape when Burrow told him to get off his field.

So you're just all over the place with wrong. Like a collage of wrong shite flung all over the walls.
