First, Holly will return.
Second, we may have multiple RBs in the top 5. And one will be a true freshman. Our RB room is very strong, moreso than in a few years, and back to LSU norms.
Say I'm wrong...

Among starting rbs in the SEC LSU clocks in at 17th with Josh Williams in the SEC for 2024 by this one article cited below ranking returning starters. While I like Josh Willians, I was probably being generous calling him an average sec starting back, he might be below average.
It’s all someone a matter of opinion, I cant say that you are wrong. It does at least look concerning that most all of our rivals have superior starters at rb.
I’m as high on Jackson being good as anyone and can see him and taking over as starter. But if he gets hurt, we anre in a world of hurt ant rb. Almost top SEC teams have 4 and 5 star young running backs too, who knows who will emerge.
I’m a glass half full guy on most things. I’m not trying to diss LSU, most every sec team has a position of relative weakness. I appreciate your optimism in saying LSU had a top running back stable this year, I suspect no one outside LSU thinks that. We do have a good 2025 class shaping up.
Keeping it real, I think this is a shallow, unproven group of runners, a far cry from what we are used to. I sure hope you are right.

And it hurts extra that Etienne is the top ranked back.
