LF7, as great as he is, not more impactful than these 5.


Without him, that 2015 team is pure garbage.

I won’t dispute the impact and success of the other 5 you listed. But Fournette shouldn’t be penalized for the lack of team achievements. Also, it’s absurd he wasn’t at least nominated for the Heisman

And I stand by my statement that the difference between Jefferson and Chase is very slim. The other guy was arguing that Chase is the best WR in LSU history, which might be true, but Jefferson is right there with him. They've both been superb though.

The post season snubs that JJ2 has received this year is all time epic. Guy is an animal.

What are you saying nope to? That LF7 wouldn't do well in this offense or that you wouldn't take LF7 over CEH? LF7 is the best RB LSU has had this decade, and if not for some unreal seasons by Burrow, Chase and Jefferson (who would make my top five) he'd be top five for sure for most people, I would wager. CEH has done better than most people thought in this offense, which I think colors the perspective a bit. He's been great though.

Do you suddenly think we wouldn't be an elite or championship team if LF7 was leading the line?


This.

Nope, I don’t believe that.

We'll have to agree to disagree. I think any of the five-star RBs we've had this decade would do great in this offense. It would be hard not to. I'll admit this offense seems more suited to the lateral quickness of Guice and CEH, but we've seen with Curry lately that committing to a hole and hitting it at full speed can be fruitful.

I agreed with you. LF7 would be a monster with this passing game.
