How would the level of hate and vitriol have compared to Landon Collins? More, less, the same?

I think it would have been even worse. Fournette is a better respective player at his position. But to mention LSU wouldn't be as strong this year, and Bama would be scary with Fournette and Henry in the fame backfield.

It would have been far worse

LF is in another league compared to the talent Saban has gotten from La

Henry would get less than 10 carries a game

There'd certainly be less wife beatings going on in Alabama.

Saban would be spelling Henry with Fournette. They wouldn't be in at the same time or we would have had Trent Richardson in with Mark Ingram. Or Lacy in with Richardson. It's the Saban way. Saban's formula is run one back until he's tired then pound you with his backup. We would be better because Drake hasn't got his footing yet this year.

Collins came across as very much stick it in the eye of the home team fans. Fournette wouldn't have been as in your face as Collins therefore less vitriol....much bigger loss though.

I didn't dislike Collins initially until he acted like a clown a few times after going to bama. How much of that is because of his equally clownish mom and half-brother I don't know.

I think the Landon Collins commitment wouldn't have been as big of a deal if his crazy arse mom wasn't involved in it.

You really should compare it to Joe McKnight.

It would depend entirely on his development and output.

His recruitment would have caused angst, sure, but if he'd come here and proceeded to go full-blown monster on the level he has this year, there would have been some serious wailing and gnashing of teeth.

If Kenny Stabler had picked LSU over Bama that would have a bigger melt on the rant. In my opinion.

There would be a lot of pissed off people in Louisiana and that is saying it nicely.

Landon Collins was a cocky A-Hole that purposefully burnt bridges to Louisiana. That's why he was hated.

If LF would've gone to Bama and been the same humble, yet awesome LF, we wouldn't have really hated him, but the disappointment on missing out would've been on a much, much grander scale.

Henry would be an afterthought. Just like he is for the game Saturday. It's all Buga, all the time right now.
