re: What’s your 5 deep depth chart at tailback for one game? (All Time LSU History)

Fournette - because if there was a hole to run through, he gets through it fast
Hilliard - possibly the most versatile RB that was ever at LSU
Guice because of his quickness in traffic and his ability to accelerate out of it
Billy Cannon - because they just don't make 'em like that anymore.
Jacob Hester - because he could get you the HARD yardage
Hilliard - possibly the most versatile RB that was ever at LSU
Guice because of his quickness in traffic and his ability to accelerate out of it

Gee Rick, you are constantly the life of the party, aren't you?
CC was pretty good from the neck down, maybe the best ever, we will never know. Seems there was a disconnect between his head and neck.
LSU has been blessed with some great running backs thru the years. Jerry Stovall was pretty good,but he played both ways, & was a DB in the pros.
Our recent run of RB's are probably the most consistent bunch we have ever seen in LSU history. Hard to just pick 5.

Dalton Hilliard had moves on the football field I've never seen replicated. Great receiver out of the backfield too.

Looks like anyone that puts Guice in their top 5 gets a bunch of downvotes
I'd go with this (in no order)
Cecil
Fournette
Faulk
Cannon
Alexander
Honorable mentions:
Jim Taylor (Really wanted to put him on here)
Jeremy Hill
Hester (Took alot to not put him)
Hilliard (Same as Taylor)
Guice
Van Buren
Stovall

Cannon was the best.
During his career he put points on the board 9 different ways...,
Rushed for TD
Threw TD pass
Caught TD pass
Ran kickoff for TD
Ran punt back for TD
Ran interception back for TD
Scored on 2 pt conversion
Kicked an extra point
Kicked a field goal
I’m not sure any player in NCAA history can match this!!

Watching his legend grow on the rant has been amazing. 4 games. that's it. he never replicated that production ever again.
Say what you want, but no LSU RB has ever started their career like he did (no RB's LSU career probably ended quicker either). Actually, I can't really even think of any RB from any team that started off quite as good as he did. It wasn't just that it was a great 4-game stretch, it was his first 4 games ever playing at LSU.
Dude was in the Heisman conversation as a redshirt freshman after 4 games on a team with an all-time SEC great and another NFL RB. Even getting hurt in his 4th game, he finished ranked 1st the nation in ypc for RBs with 50+ carries at 8.3 ypc. And that was with two top 25 SEC defenses that he faced in the first two games. He became an injured headcase, but he was extremely legit in his short LSU career.

Cecil was running behind GOAT LSU lineman Alan Faneca

In just looking at the tailback position, Billy Cannon isn't even top 10. As just a running back he was pretty average.
