Ok, so what does that have to do with Fournette?



He was just taking a dump on LSU and specifically Fournette

Wasn’t there a two year old thread on pretty much this same subject that got bumped up and was on the front MSB page two nights ago?

Why does that thread now appear to have been deleted?

Just watch him vs bama. He was able to get the corner running laterally in the backfield against teams like Auburn or Texas tech, but bama's defense was just as fast and ended that shite every time.
What an asinine take. Just look at ANYONE vs Bama during that time period that lined up with two TE's and tried to just blow them off the ball, dumbass.
Know how many number 1 picks on those defenses vs the LSU free agent OL? quit being retarded.

You don't think OSU is a top 3 program



I mean who would you possibly have as the 3rd best program since 2007? OSU has won a national title, been in the playoffs, and won huge bowl games every year not in the playoffs. It's a way better resume than any program not named Bama, and probably Clemson giving them the nod for 2 titles.

Your other realistic options are Auburn, FSU and Florida since they have national titles

Why not compare Hill to Hyde or Fournette to Zeke? I don't get it
Yeah, besides Hyde playing on Jacksonville last season and both being large yet fast RB’s the Hyde and Fournette comparison doesn’t make much sense.

As for the Hill and Hyde comparison, I would say that Hill his initial impact and peak was greater, but Hyde’s advantage is much more longevity. They have similar approximate values on Pro Football Reference (Hill’s is 22; Hyde’s is 23); however, Hill’s immediately peaked then quickly diminished (10, 6, 5, 1, 0), whereas Hyde’s was a gradual increase and then decrease (2, 3, 7, 8, 3, 2, 1).

As for the Fournette and Zeke comparison, I don’t think it’s very close at all with Zeke being considerably better at an All-Pro level with Fournette being a decent RB at best.

Certainly Hyde is going to have many more carries under his belt before it's all said and done.

Bama was literally calling our plays out loud at the line when we played them.

Brandon Harris' recent interview said Fournette begged him in the huddle to change the play because they would all be downhill right into the lane his runs were called.

He had no chance. Remember his "Heisman" campaign year he had like 40 yards and Bama was hitting him in the backfield as he got the handoff most plays?

Sometimes I want to kick Les Miles in the taint.

Screw you. Hill was a much better back in college..... as far as Fournette, I knew he would really not pan out in today’s NFL. I know he caught like 76 passes last year and gained a lot of yards but his attitude and lack of vision was a concern. However, if he lands with the right tram it could work out well for him.... as far as Hyde... he has never really impressed me.

2007 NCG.

Joe Burrow > Dwayne Haskins.

Best team of all time should be number 1!!!...can’t even beat Clemson.

At some point steamrolling the shittastic big ten every year only impresses other midwesterners

Hyde averages 3.9 ypc for a Shanahan.

Not a great look.

I think Fournette is getting better. Needs a change of pace.

This is a wierd thread because they have all unfortunately been on bad teams with not the best coaching. If they had Fournette on Cincy, Hill on 49ers, and Hyde starting at Jax i'd be very interested to see the stats. I think the answer will still depend on what teams they end up playing for.

Ha


Y’all pussies lost to Clemson in the semifinals, so y’all never got a chance to take on LSU, so you have to try some level 8 mental gymnastics to get one up on LSU fans?


frick that and frick you too. Also, frick your stupid Massey Margarine Cosmic Composite worthless arse polls too.

Gimme Fournette over Hyde any day of the week



I said what I said
