That's definitely Miles' MO.

True.
LSU will run him 50 times a game and grind him to dust like Bama does it’s running backs.
Nahhhhh, not with Williams, Guice, Brossette, and Ducre -
two 5-stars and 2 4-stars standing on the sidelines ready to give him a breather.
The you have Leonard's little brother Lynard also....

I think maybe probably true, for some reason I think that Miles will let him chew up yards against some of the weaker teams we play, unlike years past. So if he breaks a few long ones against those guys I could see it happening.
He got such little productivity last year early, that if you replace that with a couple big time yardage games you could get in the neighborhood of 1400-1500.

True or False?
He's really good ... but it is tough to hit the 1500 yard mark even if he plays 14 games.
The SEC just punishes backs who get that many carries these days.

Wouldn't put it past him to accomplish that, but he will have to do it against 9 and 10 in the box.

At 6 ypc he'd need 250 carries to get 1,500 yards, I don't think he'll get 250 carries.
The only way I could see that would be if LSU got to play a couple of extra games. Too many other good weapons available and really no need to burn LF out. Now if they do resort to someone else on the kickoffs, that could lend itself to him getting around 2 dozen more carries over the course of the season. I say it's doubtful he gets 1500 but it sure wouldn't be a shock if he did.

Better question is will he have over 2000 all purpose. Rush, rec, and KO returns? (and passing, lol)

False. LSU will have three other backs, including promising newcomer Derrius Guice. Fournette won't get the carries.

Doubt it. LF is far more talented than any other RB on the roster and he will receive the bulk of the carries this season. The others will get some carries but not enough to hamper LF's rise to GOAT status
I don't think you realize how good Guice is.
