Both Fournette and Scarborough are going to be really good ones.
Of course, part of that is dependent on who they have around them. If Bama or LSU has a mediocre OL, then great seasons are less likely.
Of course, I saw highlight reels of both of them, but seriously - if you pick and choose enough plays, you can make any good player look like the second coming.
Looking at their reels, it certainly looks like Fournette HAD to make more plays, as his OL led to him getting hit in the backfield more often.
The point is, though, that any 5* talent is going to be so rare that they're going look absurdly good against the average HS player. The same applies once a kid goes from college to the NFL - even great college players don't always make it in the pros.
They're listed as 1 inch and 1 lb from each other in size on 247. I'm sure both will develop once they're in college.
Why is there even a debate? Unless one of them gets switched to LB and suddenly has to tackle the other, the debate is pointless.
