Can't, if you read everything about his recruiting it was clear that he went to a school that would use him at RB. I bet he'd leave if we moved him to LB.

Guys do this all the time. He'll want to play wherever he's for the best shot of moving to the next level.
Well, if Christian McCaffrey can be a Heisman candidate and project as an NFL RB then...
I'm trying to find where someone said not to play him? I don't think there is any question the guy has talent, and nobody is saying otherwise. The thread is asking who will get the most rushing yards, and Duff is saying his injury history is why he isn't voting him. I think you're trying to pick a fight where there isn't one.
You can't use anecdotal evidence and treat it like it's the norm. Yeah, some 4 and 5 stars bust. But statistically, they end up being the best over thousands of players. Vice versa for 2* statistically being below average more often than not. There is a reason that these perennial powers have the best teams AND best recruiting classes. Scout, Rivals, etc watch thousands of hours of film for thousands of recruits year after year. I will continue to trust their judgement and be excited for 4 and 5 star recruits instead of taking one off anecdotes as gospel and play the "I told you he was going to be a bust" when one out of ten guys didn't cut it.
Sorry, not trying to pile on here on you personally, I just happen to disagree.

One other thing that hasn't been mentioned earlier.
Lindsay will get a lot of carries because he will be the guy on the field.
Being a RB isn't just running the ball. Lindsay may not be big but he doesn't hesitate to put his nose into the blitzing LB, when asked to carry out a play action fake he hits the hole and hits it hard, he does all the stuff that coaches want to see the RB do when they break down film on Sunday.
It looks like the coaches trust the guy, until somebody either proves that they are just as worthy of that trust or that they are so much more talented that they can't be ignored we are going to see Lindsay on the field and that means he is going to be getting the majority of the carries.
