I've been looking at all of UGA's incoming freshmen, and some of our competition's new talent at TN, AUB, Bama... but I have yet to find any of these guys that has the potential of Fournette.

Granted, Fournette is a sophomore so it's not really fair to compare freshmen to him, but in a conversation about potential, I think you have to.

What does the Rant think?



Upvote- Fournette has as much, if not more potential than Mett had at LSU

Downvote- Fournette is good, but he doesn't have the same level of potential that Mett had at LSU.

Fournette is good but not the elite, one in a generation type, player the Lsu fans hyped him up to be. They'll never admitt this as they've invested way too much effort in the hype and don't want to admit their mistake. He is a good player, can be an above average SEC caliber RB by the time he's finished his college career.

SEC play 4tds, 531yds, 66pg and a 4.1ypc is not what a Heisman candidate stats look like, especially running behind lsu's oline(Lsu fans have all said,it was / is great and one of the best in the sec). Hell that's not even 3rd team all SEC type numbers. Maybe he has elite potential,idk, but he hasn't really shown much more than average talent.

If fournette had chosen bama, the majority of your fans would have done the same thing about hyping fournette. It was a lot of the media too. And don't rush to call a guy "good, but not elite" after one year, let alone his freshman year where he caught on in the second half of the season. Pretty sure amari cooper did a lot better in his junior year with yall than his sophmore year. Just part of the maturing process.
You're just upset you can't use the symbol.

I'll give LSU's best freshman potential: Donte Jackson since he will play all three phases of the game at some point in his career.

If Fournette was in crimson, you'd be singing a very different tune.

Minkah Fitzpatrick and Daron Payne are the true freshmen turning the most heads at Bama this fall. Fitzpatrick seems to have enormous potential and appears to have earned a starting spot in the nickel defense already.


To me, Rashaan Evans is the guy at Bama that has the most potential to turn into an elite player.

How about , before y'all crown his arse the goat he actually puts up some better than less than average stats. Hell y'all have been arguing he's better than Chubb all off-season based on his lover hyped "potential" and always post the gif of,him running over the aggie db(which really shouldn't be impressive based on how bad y'all always say the aggie suck-)

If there is not a jump from last year to this year, I will agree with you. It is a little too early yo make this statement, though. He showed flashes last year, but has to be more consistent. With a more balanced offense, I expect him to be near unstoppable, though.
