Or will you continue to respect the elite athlete and potential for greatness he possesses?

Actually feel bad for him, he'll never reach his full potential with Miles and his meddling.

Surely he can't be the humble charismatic individual that Christian Laettner was.

I for one am taking the wait and see approach. I don't expect him to replace Hill and us not take a step back. I also realize he may not even be the starter next year. There's a good possibility, but it's not a given

I will always cheer for him because I know he has Bama in his heart.

The amount of hype that LSU fans are creating about LF's arrival is almost silly. I realize that his potential and playmaking ability is second-to-none, but that's a LOT of pressure to put on an 18-year-old. No doubt he is capable of doing great things for LSU..I just hope that the fans will refrain from crucifying him if and when he makes a costly mistake (as almost all freshmen do). Then again, this is the LSU fanbase we are talking about..anything less than 2000 yards, 20 TDs and a heisman is grounds for pulling his scholarship.

Nope I can't wait to see him play. I imagine he will be great. Takes 22+ players to win a ball game though. So its a waste to worry about any one player.

We hyped a DB all the way to the Heisman ceremony, and some people here are still rustled over him.

If an LSU skill position player gets to that level, the hate for him here will surpass that of Cam and JFF combined

I kind of feel sorry for the dude, unrealistic expectations being heaped on him already.

I have to admit the only time I saw him play was in the All Star game, and to be honest - he looked okay, but not the all world unstoppable back folks are making him out to be.

He will just be the next in the long line of overhyped LSU players to lose to Alabama.

Got to remember this is the same fanbase that hyped a fat guard that Les played at fullback who every year made some stupid mistake against Bama to kill momentum and ultimately any hope for an LSU win.

It has gotten comical really.

And Roc Thomas will show LSU who the best freshman RB is.

This implies we already respect that corndog. I cannot wait to see your offense with in that your savior is a true freshman running back. Cant wait.

To sum up- frick LF and frick LSU

All of the rational analysis I've seen indicates that with the other backs you guys have there's no way LF gets the carries necessary to put up Heisman numbers.

But, hey, I guess he'll rush for 25 yards per carry or something like that.
