Barring injury, he's not likely to be a bust, but the expectations being placed on him by many fans are unreal. He'd have to be the greatest running back in NCAA history to match the plaudits some LSU fans are heaping on him. I get the excitement, but the older fans should know better -- we've all seen can't-miss prospects struggle for a while when they reach the next level, be it college or the pros. LF is going to be running into some damned good defenses over his college career.
Edit: My pick for bust is Lorenzo Carter. He has the tools, but his tapes have been underwhelming. I suspect he's going to have a very tough adjustment to the college game.

In the long run, no, not a 'bust'.
But he didn't appear to be the player he's been hyped up to be when I saw him.
