Well hes quick out of his break, has nice cuts and good power per pound. Plus i saw him squeeze through a few. When you are that quick the holes are bigger when you hit them. That said his oline is great.

What are you basing this on? Nothing he has shown says he has much better potential than either of the other 2 mentioned.


Size, Speed, Strength. = potential. ALL 3 favor Fournette. A coach told me one time though " When someone says you have a lot of Potential it just means you still aint worth a ****

That's arguable at best.

Fournette is 3 inches taller than Chubb but approximately the same weight.

Fournette ran the 100 meter in high school in 10.68 and Chubb ran it in 10.69

Nick Chubb set state records in high school weight lifting with a bench of 365, power clean of 390, and squat of 700. Hell, Chubb won the state shot put title in HS with a 55ft toss. He has already broken the record at UGA for being, pound-for-pound, the strongest player ever in the program (record previously held by RB Thomas Brown, as I mentioned earlier in the thread).

Fournette isn't better than Chubb at anything, especially running the football.

My question is...just because Chubb had the best season in UGA history only starting 8 games that isn't named Herschel Walker, why does he not have as much potential? Would Chubb have more "potential" if he sucked as much dick as LF did this season?

If Chubb doesn't gain anything and has the same season from the 8 starts he had last season, his numbers would look like...
306 carries, 2150 yds, 23 TDs

Herschel Walker's best season (1981) only looked like...
385 carries, 1891 yds, 20 TDs

So that's 79 less carries, 259 more yards, and 3 more TDs than one of the greatest RBs in CFB history.

You can keep your Leonard ****. I'll take Chubb any day of the week.

Unbiased opinion: both have the same amount of potential.

So far, Chubb has looked better.

Eventually, Fournette's stats will be better because LSU will run the ball 35+ times a game with him while Chubb will get closer to 25-30 range.


I'd be happy to have either on my team.

How do you know LF will get more carries? He'll have the same HC and probably OC.

Not if you go by actual stats.

I see you edited to add Chubb went against 2 of the top 15 but it's still not true

Chubb went up against 3 of the top 15 run Ds, LF went up against 2 of the top 15
