Hill>Faulk. Hill is our best back since Hilliard. Fournette has a chance to be the best ever.

LF much better HS player than hill . No doubt best out of La. since KF with a much higher ceiling because of his size .

Jeremy Hill is our best running back since Kevin Faulk.

And he's better than Kevin Faulk in some ways. But overall, I still like Kev better.

Faulk has stats no one will touch, LF hasn't touched the field yet and Jeremy Hill was a damn good back.

I think some of you have short memories....

Collins in his four-year career at Leesville, Collins rushed 1,000 times for 7,833 yards and 99 career touchdowns (95 rushing). He was also 4A player of the year twice, and the first receipt of the Mr. Football award for best player in the State. That dude was a stud who just couldn't act straight....

Kevin Faulk wasn't that good.

I'm kidding, I'm kidding. But yes, he appears to be as good or better. IMO

I think some are too young. Some kid the other day didn't know who mealey was. Collins had everything to be one of the best.

Faulk was and may be the best we ever see with our eyes, Fournette has the tools and body but he hasn't touched the field vs an SEC defense lets slow the roll a little.

I think many know who Faulk is because of the stories but they've never seen him play. Much less Collins or Mealey, especially not in High School.

Michael Ford was probably the best rb LSU has ever seen. Too bad Miles doesn't understand how to move the ball.

True. Collins could of been something special. I think some would enjoy going back and looking at old highlights of some of our talented RB's. We've had quite a few pass through here.

Btw I was in high school when Faulk was playing but my dad was a huge fan when I was a kid and I enjoy doing things that I mentioned above so I know a little history

Russell Shepard was also going to be the perfect combination of Tommy Hodson and Herb Tyler.

Fournette certainly has the measurables and the hype.

I watched Walker and Jackson and he could have been on or damn near that level.

Hill would have destroyed the LSU rushing records with 3 full years of play. Will be the best LSU RB in the NFL by far until Fournette makes it too.
