I can recall two against Ole Miss, both KORs. Maybe five against BAMA, all KOR/PRs. La. Tech, same thing. Has he had an offensive touch in a month?

Is he too fast for Miles and Crowton?

TH sucks arse and he can't block so he's not very useful.

Ive said it before and now again:

Trindon Holliday is the most overrated player in the history of LSU football. Fast - yes. Football Player - no.

Plus the fact that if he's in the game, everyone in the stadium knows that he's getting the ball.

Hyperbole, but not far off. Announcers saying he's the "fastest man in college football" is usually quickly followed by him getting tripped up with an arm tackle.

Not a fan of TH. I especially disliked his failure to fair catch a ball that bounced on the 18 yd line and rolled to the six against ole miss. My list is long, but that is the most recent.

Highly Overrated.

Fast-Yes, Football Player-Nope

Holliday might be the 10th best weapon we have on offense. That being said he was a significant decoy when they used him in prior seasons, when they would run him across the backfield presnap and either fake it to him(the better option) or hand it off. I dont know about anyone else but when they showed the stat of him leading the SEC in punt returns I choked on some chili i was eating and sad when the f*ck did he do that.

How is he overrated when he's only had 2 touches (Ither than KR and PR) in the last 4 games? Was he overrated when he made the long kick returns against UGA? against LA Tech? They have decided not to put the ball in his hands this year. Opposing coaches still try to keep the ball out of his hands on KR and PR. At the very least, they should put him in motion as a decoy. Make the LB's and D-ends hold their position, even if only for a split second. The diff is enough to get another RB through the line and take that D player out of the play.

As far as I know, he's still returning kicks.

I lived in DC when Manute Bol and Mugsy Bogues played for the Bullets. They didn't win a ton of games, but at least the announcer got to say that we had the tallest and shortest players in the NBA.
