And yet people piss and moan about Payton hating LSU players. A me first player is exactly what this team needs right now.
Fournettes backup had over 160 yards. LSU is a run first team and Fournette benefits from that. He won't be a very good NFL player you watch.

I remember a few years back I said Manziel wouldn't make it in the NFL and got blasted by Mitch and Danno

Might not have been them but I can't miss an opportunity to say told u so

By me? I was never a Manzeil fan. Are you thinking of someone else?

I thought he was gonna be a bust from day 1.

If you said it in 2012 then it didn't make sense. But when we saw what he was all about that offseason and then how he declared after his sophomore season it was apparent he was gonna bust.

Maybe you should educate yourself about a topic before posting about it. Fournette's backup (Derrius Guice) has been considered by many to be the second best back in the SEC behind his teammate. LSU has ridiculous talent at RB right now.

So how does that make Fournette somehow overrated? What makes you think being in a run first offense benefits him? People don't compare you to some of the greatest running backs in the history of college football because of stats. Melvin Gordon put up video game numbers a couple of years back at Wisconsin, and while people took notice, nobody was talking about him like they do with Fournette.

And by the way, there were tons of people, myself included, who thought Manziel would be a bust. That wasn't a hard one to call.

Oh, and one more thing... Fournette is not a "me first player". You took what one person said on here and made it out to be the gospel truth. OBJ appears to be a very self centered player. Ok..... Name ONE other player from LSU with that reputation. To take one player and declare that he represents the behavior of an ENTIRE university is completely ridiculous.

You have been clamoring for Chad Kelly in draft threads since last year. What a stand up guy he has been.

I could go on and on, but I'm going to end my rant here.

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
