This is demonstrably false. When he was getting shut down in the Bama game, he sulked on the sideline and after the game. He did nothing to try to give his team an emotional spark. He's a fantastic athlete and RB, but he is clearly not a leader.

A few cuts from a game we got our asses handed to us is not a great sample. Fournette is often on the sidelines coaching up or otherwise actively supporting teammates, even older ones. He's one of the best leaders in the country, as a true sophomore.

I expect Henry is light it up in the pros as well.



He can't break tackles and will go nowhere in the NFL.

Not to mention he has the benefit of is defense getting him the ball back every 5 seconds.

Both will be good pro prospects but at this point the main difference I see between them is vision and elusiveness. Fournette runs more like a fullback just plowing into whatever is ahead of him. Henry keeps his head up and looks for opportunities to break to the outside and stiff-arms any pursuing players when he makes a cut away from them. In short, Fournette needs a good RB coach.


Ok I lied never mind I don't miss this shite.

LF would not be as effective running behind Bama's O-line out of the pistol. He lacks the patience to press the hole and the vision to find the cut back lanes like Henry. He looks very average running out of the shotgun the few times LSU does it.

He was other worldly running out of the I formation with a full back leading the way. When the FB went down he came back to the pack.

He made the right decision by going to LSU as the utilize the full back and it's much easier for a runner with average vision to run behind a lead blocker.

Yes he is a great back. But I am tired of seeing bama fans constantly comparing him to Fournette, and claiming he's the best ever in cfb. just like GA fans did with chub. If you want to talk about how great he is, fine, but is it necessary to constantly try to say he is better than another back who is also clearly great. It's like comparing Lebron to Kobe in their primes, both are great so just leave it be.

This is what it has come to. Aggies have nothing else to talk shite about, so they try to put down LF7 and ride Bama. You are a weak troll man. You try wayyyy too hard.

Aggies would love to have either guy. All that shite talking early in the year dont mean a thing. LSU defense shut down that pathetic offense and ran the ball just fine against their all world defensive coordinator. And none of us even cared.

You mean LF7 was LSU Offense. Litterally.

Harris was 7/21 with 1 int. I mean, why A&M didn't put all 11 ont he line is beyond me.
