I just don't see Les giving one back enough carries to rack up Heisman stats.

I like this video better. The kid that made the video is like 12 years old but he has some pretty awesome highlight videos on his channel, including one of LF7 in high school.
now THAT is a highlight vid. It's the third Fournette 2014 season highlight vid I've seen and it looks coherently done instead of a jumbled mess. The others have too many repeated plays (at different angles), and just looks bad, but this one was 100% and had Boosie too!

I haven't seen this one before, but damn this dude will create some really special moments before he leaves here. Enjoy Fournette for Heisman
Vegas says "hi" and put your money on that becoming a reality.

Do I think LF is a finished product right now? Not even close. By the time he's in his third year at LSU, be ready to eat crow
See that's the thing. Fournette is just scratching the surface right now. Guy will be ridiculous by his junior year, especially with what should be either a junior or senior passing the ball to a bunch of junior and sophomore WRs.

I know I'll get flamed, but I tend to agree. Don't get me wrong, LF is a good combination of size and speed, but he's not exceptional at this point. Basically interchangeable with Darrell Williams. He had a few really good runs this year, but most of his carries were meh. I hope he develops and turns into what we all hope he can be, but right now, he's good, not great.
LOL you have been saying this shite since the beginning of the year, and you still sound just as crazy.
spin, juke, jump cut, acceleration, truck stick, stick-um hands, the dude has it all.
Hell against UF alone, he ran over Hargreaves, found the cutback and reversed field on another run, spin cycled a guy out of his boxers in the open field, carried two guys into the endzone from five yards out, and jumped over the pile into the endzone from about 4 or 5 yards out.
Against Ole Miss, he ran over Cody Prewitt, caused a guy to rip his facemask off to get him down, caught his balance on a guy's bqck then got down to the goal line, caught a pass 30 yards out then dragged a Nkemdiche another 5-6 yards before being stopped after moving another guy a couple of yards.
Against ND, he took a Kickoff back 100 yards flying down the field. He later busted an 89 yarder with 2 DBs not even coming close to gaining ground on him.
You see what you want to see. I see a guy with all the moves, the speed, the strength, the power, the hands, and the ability to make people miss in the open field. I'm not saying he'll win a heisman, but this guy is going to be the engine for a national championship before he leaves.

Two words: Kevin Faulk.
Funny, cuz I typed his name amongst the others one then I erased it b/c I didn't want to hear about how he was never a starter. One of the great third down backs ever

Williams came in and got the tougher yards thus he is going to have a lower YPC than Fournette. Fournette of course has more break away speed but Williams is more of a work horse for the tough yards. Just completely different types of backs.
Fournette got the tougher yards. Williams was just a relief back and nothing else. Two of Williams 3 TDs were from the package where Fournette was the decoy. Look I like Williams too, but he is an average back compared to Fournette.

This guy was criticized for running to high and he did alright.
Also a guy named Jim Brown. Cat always looked like he was ice-skating past defenders. Don't care for him but O.J. Simpson was pretty much an upright runner as well; former track sprinter.

Fournette's pass catching is underrated also. Dude could play a 230 pound receiver if he wanted to. Tremendous pass catcher that Miles and Cameron didn't even capitalize off last season.

Losing 5 games in a season with this guy in the backfield is equivalent to losing in the first round with Shaq, Roberts, and CJ.

Fournette is 1/22... Your comparison is 3/5.

No its not.not when you dont have one skill position player with more than 3 games started in his entire collegiate career. LF is 1 player out of
22 starters.Shaq, CJ, And Roberts are 60% of the starters for basketball.

We could care less about the individual accomplishments of any individual LSU football player.
Win the SEC West.
Win the SEC.
Win a Major Bowl.
Finish the season in the Top Ten.
It's about the the team. The Team. THE TEAM!
