Let us throw our heads back and laugh at PFF's stupidity.

He has the most touchdowns, yards, and ypg, so you have to wonder what's up with that

i guess PFF feels like he hasn't had enough LSU callers to his show. that would be the only reason to make a comment that stupid.

Part of being a RB is also blocking and receiving.

Haven't seen a whole lot of those from LF, but what I have seen is some suspect hands catching the ball and blocking.

He might be the best runner, but there are other facets to being a RB.

How they grade

Not last season. Not two weeks ago. Right now. It is represented through a 1 to 100 scale and we use a weighted depreciation over the past two years with more weight given to recent games.


Apparently not... 3 consecutive 200 yard games.

Obviously, they don't believe that themselves.

What? You just made that up. He has shown excellent hands in the past. Ask Ole Miss.

I'll give you that he isn't the best pass blocker on the team.


He may have the best hands though, we just never throw the ball the RBs.

As I said, there is a very limited sample size...but he certainly has parts of his game that he can develop.

You know how I know you have no clue what you're talking about?

LSU throws the ball about 14 times a game. There are plenty of things wrong with the passing game, but #7 is not one of them.
