Just heard Jeremy Hill's interview and he said he's down to 230lbs and in great shape. Realistically how much playing time do you see him getting with him being behind Ware, Ford, Hilliard, Blue, and Magee? I really think he's gonna be special after some time here

I think he plays but maybe we RS him I cant speculate even a little, do you play him if he is as good as we hear? or do you sit him and ride the rest. His run in the spring game ended who's career at LSU? Vinson?

He'll probably play a little. Depends on injuries too.

To little information to know for sure, but he looked like he is the first or second best back at LSU right now! Red shirting him is pointless if you think it will keep him at LSU longer.

Is this what you're talking about? The quality is pretty awful, but you get the idea just how good he can be.

What do you base this on? The way he looks in a uniform?

We have one of the best 5 backfields in college football. It seems ludicrous to suggest that a true freshman that has not taken a single snap of college football, it the second best RB on the squad.

Hill may be one of the best we have, but he will have to prove it on the field. His measurables indicate that he has a high ceiling, but they do not make him a great college football player.

I can't wait to see what kind of player he can be.

I think he will play if he is the best of the bunch. Thinking Ford and Ware could go pro, but the way Les likes to rotate backs, maybe they won't get drafted high and will stay. Hillard and Blue would be here a few more years and same with McGee.

Personally, I think he will be the best back with Blue and Hillard. Ford is more of a speed guy, so change of pace. I haven't forgotten about Ware. Haven't seen enough of McGee.

I think he will be like Hilliard and start at some time playing FB then work his way into rotation.

redshirt prob won't matter; not likely he would stay the extra year.

I think he is going to be a beast. Can't wait to see him knock some people backwards.

Doubt that will happen seeing as how he is already a year removed from high school. I've also heard he could get thrown in the mix this year, possibly the fullback route that Hester, Scott, Ware and Hilliard went before.

That's one of my good buddies..happens to be from Bastrop. In hindsight of course it sounds hilarious, but at the time it was a debatable topic. We still give him shite for it though
