Hill is better which is saying a lot because Ridley was very effective.

Good comparison. Shifty and good vision. Will be stronger by the time he is a junior/senior. and yes a bit faster

I think he is a bit more physical and with a little more top end speed. Both are not afraid to put their head down and bowl over guys on the other team.

Didnt make the connection, but yeah, i can see where the style of each are similar. Hopefully, he will earn the right to be mentioned with Ridley.
Helluva job against a defense that shut georgia down. A freshman taking full advantage of the opportunities.

Hill reminds me of a cross between James Jacquet and Kendall Cleveland.

Hill got himself a helmet sticker from the college football final crew (Mark May)

Apparently, none of you people ever saw Cecil Collins. Hill runs just like Collins.

I see him as a bigger Justin Vincent. For a non LSU comparison, I would say Jamal Lewis.
