He should've been playing all season, Les was wrong


something was up with that. never know what goes on behind the scenes (practice) but i betcha les was trying to teach him a lesson. he looks like he might be a good one, but needs some improvement to become a complete back.

You forgot to list Richard Murphy at the top of the depth list if he is granted a sixth year of eligibility
Hope you're being sarcastic about that.

I love Murphy. Seems like a great kid and I wish injuries hadn't taken the toll they have. I also appreciate Les giving him chances. I think he might have a better shot @ wideout if he gets a 6th year.

Tough to see a guy with so much heart and determination lose more than just a step or two. Murph use to have sick quicks, but those days are long gone unfortunately. I bet he's provided some serious leadership for the RBs off the field and in practice. If he gets a 6th and makes a move to WR, I'd like to see him lose some weight. Maybe that will help him on his speed and wiggle, plus he won't need that extra out wide.

Im pretty sure it has been stated that if RM gets his 6th year he will move to WR.

no i have seen him the past couple games not pick up the blitz or just blocking like shite. He did much better today.


Put someone else in when you need a blocking back. LSU rotates RB's amyway. I don't think that was the only reason Ford wasn't playing.

He appears to be the best all around back to play this year.

Hell, Ford even did a good job at that. The dude is jacked as hell. He really can hold his own.

He played a hell of a game and FINALLY we can utilize the option. Blue and Murphy just couldn't pull it off but the missing piece has been found.

IMO Spencer Ware will be a WR next year with all the RB's we will have on the roster next year. Great problem to have though

He played great. I wish he would have gotten vertical sooner on about 4 of his runs especially the TD that was called back. He could have easily picked up 3 to 5 more yards each time if he did, and stayed in the field of play on the TD.

I'm glad Ole Miss never adjusted in that formation.
