Jeremy Hill


Oh my frick easiest decision ever. Are you serious?

Now if you had asked Henry or LF.. I'd probably take LF.

LSU fans saying LF are being ignorant. Yeah, the kid may be great, but the question was in reference to next year not the next 3-4. Do y'all really think LF outperforms what Hill did last year or how good he is right now? Regardless of how much potential he has, it's very unlikely he puts up 1400 yards and 6.9 ypc as a freshman. Please temper your expectations

Fournette. While I miss Hill, we know what he could do and to be honest, I just really wanna see if the kid lives up to the hype.

If Fournette is 3/4 of the running back Jeremy Hill was I'd be satisfied.

Honorable mention : that Henry kid looked good in Bamas bowl game but that's all I've seen of him.

Henry was better in every major statistical category than Fournette in high school against better competition.

Forgive if I don't believe what recruiting analysts say about a prospect.


If finally came out. OP is mirin' hard.

Does each have the same amount of eligibility? Do we have to buy Derrick Henry a car? Will Jeremy Hill have to punch someone else and be reinstated by team vote? So many questions, so few answers.


Quality pissed.

No we're not. High risk, high reward. I think LF has a higher ceiling than anyone else OP listed.

So frick off.

You're making a big mistake comparing the competition in Yulee, FL to the ridiculous talent in Central Florida and South Florida. Henry would have been great wherever he played but there is no way he puts up those numbers playing against the competition you see in major metro areas in Florida. Despite his size and stats, he wasn't even the highest ranked RB in the state the year he came out.


Yeah, and LF played in one of the hardest divisions in Louisiana. Comparing the competition Henry played against to what Fournette played against is like comparing a MAC RB to an SEC RB.

Henry doesn't belong in the same sentence with LF.

Not according to NFL experts and your own fan base. May be time to re-evaluate your opinions.

the question is for next season and next season only. LF is not going to reach his "ceiling" in his freshman year. if you think he will equal what Hill did last year, you're setting yourself up for a big disappointment.

How do you think FSU fans would have answered the question 1 year ago if they were given the choice to have EJ Manuel who was a mid 1st round NFL pick back as the QB of a NC contender or a redshirt freshman that had never thrown a pass at the college level? How about if you asked the same question to Texas A&M fans the previous year when Tannehill was the #8 overall pick and his backup was another redshirt freshman that had never thrown a pass at the college level? For that matter, the 4 starting QB's in the last 2 BCSNC games where either RS freshman or a 1st year Div 1 starter. And it's a lot easier to step in and make an immediate impact as an inexperienced RB than a QB.
