I'm ashamed to admit this...
But if you’d asked me who Kenny Hilliard was at the beginning of the season I wouldn’t have had a clue. Amazing to see him wrap up SEC Freshman of the Week. What a group of running backs we’ve got.
LSU Tigers: 12-0 (8-0 SEC)
SEC West Champions
Bring on Georgia!
for sure
Someone mentioned a rumor about magee possibly transferring. It’s not confirmed but you could hardly blame the guy. He and gore are talented young athletes buried in a ridiculous (and young) depth chart

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like Magee.
Gore…Meh.
I wish we’d have moved one of those RB’’s to LBer though. Ware, Ford, Blue, Hilliard, Magee…One of them…

"I don’t want to say that I think Mo Claiborne is faster than Patrick Peterson…..but I think Mo Claiborne is faster than Patrick Peterson." -Les Miles
Haven't heard anything about Magee
I have heard about Gore maybe transferring though. And that makes sense given that 2 true freshmen passed him on the depth chart pretty quickly, with 3 other classmates ahead of him as well.

Can't they work Gore into a Skyler Green role
kick returner/wingback? Anyway the dude is only a RS freshman – the depth chart will look very different if he just waits a year or two.
Don't Panic.

Kind of also described ODB and Russell Shepard there
Just not enough touches to go around no matter how you slice it. I don’t think anything’s set yet with Gore though. And he’s just a redshirt freshman, so there’s still time.

I was hoping we'd see a lot more of Gore and Shep in the Wildcat this year.
Heck, I don’t think we’ve run any true wildcat…Much less plain jet sweeps with Shep…
I’d love to see what we could do running a full series of wildcat every game.

Can't argue with that.
Especially since we saw them practice it in spring practice videos.

I think you're right
I don’t recall any Wildcat this year at all.

We would graciously accept any spare RB's in Athens

I was told about him over the summer
I watched some film of him from high school ….my god! He was just running over and through everyone. I definitely didn’t think he’d make this immediate of an impact though…
by Bugseye on Nov 29, 2011 10:44 AM CST via mobile up reply actions
yeah, I remember around the time of the all-american game he was in at the beginning of the year that it was reported...
that he was out of shape or over-weight. Based on that I was hopeful that he would get it together (that he may be red-shirted even) this year, but he has been a pleasant surprise. The light came on about mid-season with him running hard every time he touched the ball.
Reporter: What would you say a Greg Studrawa offense is like? Stud:
"Attack and be very physical…fly around…attacking, come after you and come after you and come after you…." Me: I love this answer.
GET TO THE RIM HEAT (and SKY)! ATTACK THE PAINT!
Hilliard is a beast and dude is a freshman
I can’t wait for next year. Hopefully Mettenberger can light up the sky with some aerial assaults and then we batter and bruise the shit out of D-Lines with the ground and pound attack from Hilliard, Ford, Blue and whomever they decide to put back there. I think a 55/44 Running to Passing Offense would be awesome. Add that to our defense and I see a lot of teams getting embarrassed AGAIN in 2012.

And if you are wondering...
I didn’t leave off that extra 1 percent on purpose, but I am sure that is left for the Mad hatter to use. lol

hehe, no doubt he will

I hope Mett comes along like I think he can and I think that is they way we are heading. Last year, we laid the foundation of being a physical football team by running it a ton. This year they made the passing attack more straightforward, down-field, play-action and have become more balanced.
I think that will continue next year and this freshman class has some really special players on it who will only get better and better: Hilliard, Collins, Freek, ODB, Landry, Magee, Rasco, ect. I love that we picked up some good oline prospects already for next year and see Miles continuing with trying to make sure we can power run first of all as the foundation.

Love the arm...
but after watching Mett run that naked bootleg against Ole Miss, not sure he has the wheels to run the option, although JJ is no Trindon Holliday.
Deserves got nothin' to do with it...
What does next year's schedule look like to ya'll?
I think we can appear in the NC game again next year.

Consensus preseason #1 I'd say.

I'd just like to t ake this opportunity to give a belated word of thanks
that Gary Crowton is no longer offensive coordinator.
My idea is that every specific body strives to become master over all space and to extend its force (--its will to power:) and to thrust back all that resists its extension.

Thanks in no small part to turnovers leading to gimme touchdowns
Rumors that Edsall (and, presumably, Crouton along with him) are already on the hot seat, which must be some kind of record. But they took a 9-4 team and drove it off a cliff – the only I-A team they beat was Miami, in week one, when Miami was way understrength due to all the suspensions.
Don't Panic.

I feel bad for the guy
He’s smart…he’s just TOO smart for his own good.
On the other hand, how on earth do quality head coaches keep hiring him??? Does past performance mean nothing when hiring someone for a coaching job?
Gary's problem is that he thinks tactically, not strategically
You can’t live on being unpredictable.

Even though he was here last year, he is a distant memory in my thoughts, kind of like Lou Tepper. It is nice.
