Will:
a. LSU rely so heavily on him the next two years, that they will be under-developed in other areas once he's gone?

Or
b.the exposure brings so many other great players to LSU that it compensates for a, and then some?

Because LSU doesn't currently have the most players on NFL rosters out of every other college. That is very good indicator that we don't develop players at all.

hate all you want, but if Fournette isn't as great as he is, then Guice and Williams get more reps and the passing game has to develop. Once Fournette is gone, Guice and Williams will be the feature backs and more reps now means they are much better in '17. Same for Harris.

On the other hand, he will be idolized by kids all over the country, and LSU may pull some guys they otherwise wouldn't have.

We've had a lot of great backs in Miles tenure and they all started behind someone. Yet, somehow we continue to produce great backs.

Is Fournette not much better this year for all the reps he got last year? Hell, he was better last year as he got more and more reps.

Leonard Fournette being a great LSU back and getting tons of media hype helped LSU get recruits they otherwise wouldn't have....before he arrived?

Fournette is a sophomore and our best back. Darrell Williams is a sophomore and a great back. Guice and Brosette are both true freshmen. All of our backs are getting touches. I'm not sure what you're getting at. Is it odd that we run our best back more than our other backs?

You realize that the class Leonard arrived in was the best class in LSU history, right?

Can you try to keep up with me? I know I'm smarter than you and all but come on.

We rely on him so heavily because nobody has proven to stop him.

It's like you went "hmm LSU has got this great player, can't really deny how good he is, what kind of insane mental gymnastics can I do to turn it into a negative?"

over-relying on one player can't hurt you when he leaves?

When Guice and Franks are fricking shite up this question will be even more retarded than it is now. Give credit to our offensive line too.

So you think we should NOT feature the guy who is by far the best player on offense? Are you fricking retarded?
