Rivals.com ranks Richard Murphy the 23rd best back in the nation. That's a huge compliment to pay the sophomore.
Although he is ranked very high by Rivals.com, he is still 3rd on the LSU depth chart but could move up quickly depending on game performance. Expect Murphy to get significant playing time this season.
I can attest to his outstanding development over the off season. I attended the spring game and Murphy absolutely outshined his upperclassmen. Murphy ran around through and over defensive players during this exhibition and certainly gave the Tiger faithful, a sense of security for the future of the Bayou Bengal's running game.
23. Richard Murphy, LSU, Soph.
The Buzz: Here's yet another example of a guy earning a spot that just as easily could have gone to a teammate. Murphy has stood out the most in the preseason, but Keiland Williams or Charles Scott could move to the front of the depth chart at some point in the regular season.
Here's a great example of the future of the running game. Gentlemen, meet Richard Murphy.
