Peyton Hillis more athletic than Fournette?

Hillis ran a similar 40 time of 4.57 (low in the 4.4s).

For vertical jump Hillis had a 35 compared to Forunette's 28.5

Hillis' weight? Same as Forunette's at 240

Hard to argue that Hillis isn't a better overall athlete. Fournette would likely have been the 4th option in the 2006 Arkansas backfield.

You are self decieved if you think LF would be warming the bench at anypoint during the history of your football team.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he would have been utilized. Honestly in a lead blocker role in front of Hillis/dmac/Jones, he would've been very effective.

He could have been used as a pulling guard. He also has the frame to put on about 50lbs and play nose tackle.

Yea, but Mcfadden was more of a qb type runningback. He threw 7 touchdowns his last two years at Arkansas. His passer rating for his career was 230+.

It is getting a little silly. Then, considering how many time LSU fans will pile thread on top of thread if they get a chance to troll TAMU or Bama, it's pretty hypocritical to point that out.

Says the guy who lives in North Carolina, is a Vanderbilt fan but will suck the right nut of any Alabama athlete or fan that will allow him to do so

It would only be hypocritical for me to point out the numerous threads created by the same Hogville fans over and over again if I were personally guilty of doing the same thing.

In my case, I would make the same observation regardless of the fan base the OP originates from.

Future all SEC back Michael Smith was also on that roster. He would have been option number five.

Yes, that retort...didn't actually apply to anything I said. I went to Vanderbilt. I currently live in North Carolina. I'm sure somewhere in your tortured imagination, you think you made a devastating point. But all that's coming through is that your feelings were hurt so badly you were reduced to making random observations about information freely available under my name.

Well, I wasn't so much speaking in terms of your individual responsibility in the sui generis sense as to the inevitability that fans tend to completely ignore these things when it's their own fanbase doing it but take offense when it's directed at their own fanbase.

While I believe your argument is likely correct in the case of 90% of the posters on this site, there are a few of us who would love to see this site not be the complete and total hellhole it is now.

Fair enough. I acknowledge that I have no reason to single you out specifically other than the fact it was your observation (which I made a point of agreeing with) that sparked my own observation.
