RB Jashaun Corbin (Sophmore)

2018 stats as a true freshman: 57 rush, 305 yds, 5.4 ypc, 1 TD; also added 304 yards in the return game with a TD

He will likely replace Trayvoen Williams as the starter, but it will most definitely be a time share with other talented backs on campus. I expect Corbin to lead that effort and be a major offensive contributor in all games that he plays in. Runs a bit upright, but has absolutely breakaway speed. Could take it to the house on any play.

Most impactful? Swift

Best or most talented? Andrew Thomas at left tackle.

If healthy, no one should touch the ball more than swift. No one should get more TDs. And no one would be relied upon as much in key plays. But all of that is because the position that he plays.

You almost can't beleive its possible but I think that Tua will make big improvements this coming year. If the o line can protect him better he can have the greatest year of any qb ever. Not just here but all collage football. Clemson girlboy will have a let down after his luck in the natty. Tua will win the Hiseman.

I do think Tua has things he can improve on, despite the phenomenal year he had. Pre and post snap reads for one, he seemed to be confused at times. Taking what the defense gives him, every play doesn't have to be a Heisman moment. Checking down to backs. Not taking monster sacks (loss of 12 loss of 16). I definitely think Tua will improve in year 2 as the starter.

I'm thinking whomever starts at Center. New Oline has to gel and a smart center will be key.

Skill player though it's Pern. He will be the main back I'm assuming. Davis and Pierce make a really strong back up group as well

I'm going with Emery 5* RB that will be a freshman this year. In 2018 LSU lacked a strong run game. Nick Brosette is gone. Although CEH returns, I think Emery will be the better back and end up getting more touches or at least close to equal between the two.

John Emery Jr. No knock on Brosette... but he was glaringly bad compared to what LSU has been accustomed to for the past 20ish years...

I’m hoping we get Toney involved more.

He needs to become a key part of our offense

If he is healthy...Trey Smith. UT needs an experienced person to anchor the line if they ever expect to improve offensively.

J.R. Reed and Swift are both All-Americans next year.


Mays, Wilson, Hill, Kindley and Cleveland are all excellent players. Salyer is a future pro as well. This O-Line will be amazing for a long while.

The answer to the original question, however, is Swift. It's going to be fun to watch.

Charles Scott and Steven Ridley averaged about the same.

Glaringly was the word i hated. he wasn't LF or DG but he was a good running back.
