Hester is faster than Ridley with better hips and vision. Try again.

Since it's obvious you were talking about Hester... it's not as if we converted a FB into a RB in one year and he had the season that he did. Hester had the most yards of any running back the previous year with 4.7 ypc.

But how many times did he actually carry the ball cuz joseph addai was the main rusher. Actually hester seemed more of a finess FB cuz he caught alot of passes out of the backfeild. many ppl dont know that b4 that he was a safety and i think a TE 4 that. He just finally found hid nitch

He carried 94 times to lead ALL RUNNING BACKS. Joseph Addai went pro in 2005.

Considering your knowledge on Addai, I'd question this.

he did as a freshman i remember seeing it in the newspaper one day wen they did an articlle about him but they didnt keep there for long

look i love hester i was makin a point that alot of players come out of nowhre. And while ur pushing and cheering for them 2 put in a certain guy, and then someone comes out of nowhere u will forget all about that certain person.

Murphy is an undersized back without the speed to go with it.

...Ford starts - and gets the carries..everyone else becomes Keiland Williams. "Ceptin maybe the dude from Cincinnati makes a move...

Look at how they view the coaches and tell me it doesn't make sense. A large portion of LSU fans can't be content with what they have and are always looking for the next best thing. Other coaches and recruits are sexy, and by LSU-logic, they are innately superior to what we have.

i remember how everyone wanted Richard Murphy to get some playin time the last 2 or 3 yrs. now they ready for ford and ware. thats y i dont pay attention to alot of the ppl on here

Hey dumb arse you think that I don't know that. You are the stupid one making posts about redshirt freshman getting killed in SEC play. Are you a child or something?
Posted on 5/8/10 at 9:13 pm to rickyh
what i was saying is that u cant just throw him in there and give him entire load. i dont him getting few carries but alot ppl saying give him majority of the carries. ur gonna kill him tryin to do that. o and frick U

Dude where did you learn to spell. It is evident that you are a Richard Murphy fan but he has done exactly nothing to show why you think he is so great. I hope that he has a break out year but he has been around a long time and hasn't sniffed the field during crunch time in any game. Why should he suddenly be on top of anybodies depth chart? Ford has been in the system for a year, the only reason that he was redshirted was of depth ahead of him last year. Ridley has looked good at times but he has never looked like a pro prospect. Spencer Ware looks to be the best back that the Tigers has recruited in years. Ford is also solid. Give us Richard Murphys stats for his LSU career. Then be quiet.

lets see wat u can do if had to sit behind CS and KW. and as far as spring murphy had two great spring games back 2 back and do u kno wat they did at the beginning of both yrs. they put charles scott as the leading back. i just dont think he has been judged fairly. last yr was a fluke. i want u to be honest if it was not for CS and KW had not gotten hurt also would u have noticed him not playin. and ppl forget that in 07 murphy made a big first down on 4th down in the arburn game so we could have the oppurtunity to throw that alst second pass. also i checked the stats and he has the best stats out of all the current backs and has not started a game. didnt ridley start the last 3. and i dont wanna here about ford being redshirted cuz of depth just look at who murphy had to try and beat out. i bet no one complained about the way it played out

Michael Ford is the best running back LSU has had since Dalton Hilliard. He will get LOTS of carries.
Mark my word.

I am not against any LSU player. But insinuating that Murphy is our best option is wrong. It is not a shame to be a fan of a certain player but it is wrong to assume that he is the answer to the problem. And by the way, it is a shame to be illiterate. Do you need tutoring? It is not to late to seek help.

look im not saying he is the answer. all i want is for him to get fair shot before trying put other ppl in. he at least desrves a shot considering he had to sit behind 2 backs. also im not illiterate, wen im not typing something important for class or a resume i really dont feel like worrying about it. u understand me. and i type to fast sometimes. im not dumb i came out of high school wit a 3.2 gpa 22 on the act and i got a 6000 scholarship to attend Louisiana Tech University. but any i just want him to get his chance and he screw up o we
