TJ Yeldon is the best freshman RB

He will win the Heisman the same way Mark Ingram did. Playing behind 5 All American linemen at the same damn time.
Gray doesn't have Yeldon's Oline.
Gurly doesn't have Yeldon's Oline.
Duke doesn't have Yeldon's Oline.
Yeldon is good. The three I mentioned are better runnings backs, IMO. Yeldon is just in a better situation having all of those big uglies.

Ingram ran behind Mike Johnson, John Michael Boswell, William Vlachos, Drew Davis and James Carpenter.
Just so you know Drew Davis went to Sparta Academy in Evergreen. That's in the smallest division of the AISA (the second rate Christian athletic association).

So now you are gonna hold it against Bama that they go out and recruit the best OL?

If that's the case, then you could hold weak defenses against any PAC 12 or Big 12 RB.

Who said I was holding something against Bama? You sure insinuate a lot. IMO... That means "In My Opinion", there are 3 better freshman running backs than Yeldon. That means, if you put the 4 RB's on Vanderbilt's roster, which one do I think would be the best RB. Here is who I think would be most effective in order if all were on the same team.
Gurley
Gray
Johnson
Yeldon
If you don't like my opinion, I'm sorry. I wish I could make you happier, but I can't.

I think its a toss up between yeldon and gurley. Both guys can run for power and have the speed to run away from people. Although i believe yeldon has the quicker feet. Its virtually a toss up between those two guys.

I'm not insinuating anything. Who cares if they have good linemen. They go out and recruit them and develop them.
I wish like hell South Carolina could get those type of OL

Hill looked liked the better freshman tonight, imo.

Both good but Yeldon got less carries. Yeldon would have definitely put up over a hundred if he got a few more.
Yeldon - 11 carries 76 yds
Hill - 29 carries 107 yds

Could you imagine Lattimore behind our OL. Wouldn't be fair in the least. Although your line has played well at times.

Well if I put AJ in the Big XII, he'd have better stats than Geno Smith.

We will struggle next year. Most likely losing four guys to the NFL.

Four? I say two. If Fluker leaves, he is an idiot.

I agree, but heard his mom is really struggling to make end's meet. He definitely needs another year to improve his pass blocking.

I feel like I've only watched a little bit of Yeldon, but I've never noticed him running with power.

Damn shame. I wish he could get more student loans or something because he is getting a raw deal if he has to leave.

Yeldon reminds me so much of a pre-injury Willis McGahee. Very similar running style and they do everything really well. McGahee was probably a little faster though.

As of now now I will give it to Yeldon but Duke Johnson would be second on my list.

best frosh since Adrien Peterson

Hell, he is better than AD now. Dude is crazy good. He doesn't even need an Oline blocking for him. I bet he has the same agent as Lance Armstrong... has to. It is the only explanation for that awesomeness. Simply unbelievable!

Case closed. Yeldon is the real deal.
He is clearly the best freshman RB in the nation.

LSU could not stop our running game. It baffles me that we did not run the ball more. Yeldon had his way the entire night.
Simply the best

OL will still be pretty good. Cy will be back at LT and his bro arie will be LG, with Steen back at RG and possibly fluker back at RT. Center will be the only real concern.

it is considered "hating" on someone because you say that player is better? Lol
Again, when Yeldon wins a heisman we are gonna revisit this thread
