Emery was deemed academically ineligible for the 2021 project, and eventually never ever saw the field. Tyrion Davis-Price rather rushed for over 1,000 backyards, however then chose to leap to the NFL. That leaves Emery as the most likely starter when LSU begins the 2022 project. That being stated, he will have some competitors. Penn State transfer Noah Cain has entered the fold, while sophomores Corey Kiner and Armoni Goodwin likewise received chances as a freshman while Emery was shelved. Emery’s talent is challenging to ignore, but it has actually not yet equated to on-field success, and it is far from a foregone conclusion that he will end up as the lead back for the whole season.
Emery came to LSU amidst much fanfare last year, however the backfield was crowded behind starter Clyde Edwards-Helaire, who shined as the Tigers roared to the National Title. Emery had just 39 brings for 188 yards as a freshman, though he did score 4 times on the ground. Edwards-Helaire has proceeded to greener pastures, and Lanard Fournette left school, however Chris Curry and Tyrion Davis-Price still stay as competition for Emery. Curry had 38 brings last year, while Davis-Price had 64 and six touchdowns. Perhaps which back becomes the best pass catcher out of the backfield will go a long way towards identifying who sees most of the touches, as the abovementioned Edwards-Helaire signed up 55 receptions in 2019.
There’s some threat in putting this much stock in a player who hasn’t played a down in college, however when it’s a player of Emery’s skill heading into a situation like LSU’s, it’s worth it. Emery is considered the second-best back in the 2019 class with a mix of power and explosiveness. The scenario could not be much better, either; 2018 leading rush Nick Brossette is gone and Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a middling skill who balanced just 4.5 YPC. Emery is the most gifted back on the lineup and has a genuine shot at setting the LSU freshman rushing record.
