re: Just how good can Clyde Helaire-Edwards be?

Dude you can NOT compare current players who haven't proven themselves to all time LSU legends. These people flip the frick out when you do that.

With that said he can be very good. I don't think he will have very high numbers do to the fact that we will rotate often and have a high octane passing game. This could allow him to rack up YPC average.

I think our backs will be used in a multitude of ways like they always should be. Just because you have a big bruising back doesn't mean that you can't pass the ball as well as run the ball. It also doesn't mean that you have to simply wear down a defense with him, when you can use him in the flats and the middle of the field with a full head of steam. I would always use my backs in many different ways as well as use my offense to fool the defense no matter how good my personell is in one area. GT
