Let's also not forget that Yeldon gained the same amount of yards this year as a sophomore behind a rebuilt OL as Lacy had as a senior behind one of the best OL's in CFB history.
Eddie did it with fewer carries per game in what was shockingly a more difficult schedule (given that both schedules were pretty bad as far as the SEC goes, it is sad that Yeldon's dossier was less impressive). OTOH any time Derrick Henry received more than about 5 touches he was absolutely electric. This idea that he had one breakout half is for people that only watched him play once. Dude looked incredible several times this season. I think he had a massive outburst against Arkansas. Arkansas sucks, but that was one of the few games they gave him touches.

You're purposely overlooking the other part of the post about him doing it behind arguably the best offensive line in CFB history? Or was that an accident?
Lacy was a great back, but yeldon is a tighter grip away from being the same. I think he's being sold pretty short because of the fumbles as if he isn't a God-given talent runner

When you respond to a point that is already made and you fricking quoted it in your post, you don't have to repeat it when you counter that point. I enjoy that you have your own arbitrary rules on how to argue though. It is very interesting.

Well you worded it as if to say lacy had more impressive numbers because he did it in fewer carries. You chose to disregard the lines they ran behind. I found that interesting

I neither ignored it nor did I disregard it. I quoted it. I'm not sure there is anything more contrary to ignoring something than to explicitly quote it in full.
Also, it was a counterpoint, of course it was worded that way. That would be like me saying, I like how the poster IGNORED that Lacy got the same production in less carries per game. He didn't ignore it, it is just yet another piece of the puzzle.
