Only way he doesn't get to 1000 yards behind that offensive line is he gets injured. If i had to pick a number I would say 1250 and about 135 carries which is 9.2 yards per carry. If Les Miles goes away from his usual formula you can expect about 75 more carries and about 500 more yards

I think this is where the divide happens between LSU and Bama fans with this guy. LSU fans think Bama would give their left nut to get him, while Bama fans think we treated him just like any other big time recruit we go after.


Fournette would have been the biggest recruit Saban landed while at Alabama. Don't act like he's just another 5*

Saban doesn't offer marginal recruits a scholarship just because they are the brother of a highly rated guy. Well..he did with Leonard and his younger brother

This is why people on this board think that LSU fans are delusional about Fournette. No one has said he isn't going to be a great back.

But you act like you know more, which brings us to the second part of his statement.

Okay then Champ, how did we practically sell our souls to get him?

I don't see what's funny. He wouldn't have played over Yeldon, he wouldn't have played over Henry. He would be competing with Drake for the 3 spot which typically gets about 10% of the carries in Saban's offense.

ETA: Hell, even LSU fans don't think he will start over Magee and Hilliard to start the season, but he was supposed to start at Alabama?

You offered his little brother a scholarship

You held off on Roc Thomas because of him

You're supposed to say 'Saban never really wanted him.'


Correct and post again.

So doing two things that are commonly done in SEC recruiting are now considered "selling your soul"?

You said he wouldn't have "played" for a couple of years, genius. You're stepping on your own pecker again.
