False. If anything, I think Miles uses a more balanced running game unless they really need Fournette to take over. I want nothing more than Fournette to succeed in the NFL. Kid deserves it for how much work he's put in to being an exceptional player and advocate for LSU.


All you have to do is see how many carries each had last season. The mix won't (shouldn't) change much in 2016. If it does change, it will be that LSU has found a QB (which is good news) so they decide to throw the ball more. (Which is bad for Fournette/Guice) I think they keep running the ball.

How do you know what should and shouldn't happen in LSU's run game? I don't think you really payed attention to Guice's play last season. Not trying to slight you, but this kid will break out if the carries are split.

There is no reason Fournette should carry the load of the offense like Henry did for Bama last season when we have a player as good as Guice.

Besides, Les has run RBBC before. Most notably the 2011 team and it worked out pretty well. I highly doubt Fournette will be the sole workhorse next season
