re: The Truth about Leonard Fournette

Not at all my friend. I think it is, however, a combination of things though that has brought on this discussion. LF was regarded as the undisputed best RB in HS last year and possibly the best in many years. Chubb was considered by most to be a very good back but not a great back who would make an immediate impact in this conference. The only people expecting anything noteworthy from Chubb, as a freshman, were UGA fans tied into these types of boards who were hearing and reading the chatter from the players and coaches when practice began. Even we could not have expected this and I am sure that we would not be having this discussion had Gurley not had the autograph saga and Sony Michel would have stayed healthy. Chubb was our #3 RB until game five. Even in his limited time in the first few games, he had "holy crap" moments like when he kept plowing through tackles after his helmet came off in game one vs Clemson. But all that told us was that we had a stable of riches at the position and Chubb was still #3. After game 5, until now, he has been dominant in every game. Folks talk about teams stacking the box against LSU but ignore that teams have stacked the box against UGA all year as well. If we switched players, I don't see LF having the same type of numbers that Chubb has had. Chubb has demonstrated every trait that you beg for in an elite RB. From blocking, to receiving. From burst, power, vision, cutting ability and instinct to durability and back end speed. LF has great potential and might end up being the better RB in 2 years but he is not right now. And that's just an honest assessment. Chubb, if he can remain healthy, will likely end his career as #2 on UGAs all time rushing list behind Walker. Heck, he would be around 1800 yds right now if he had started the first 5 games.
