LINK Pretty brief, but sounds good (natch) with the connections with Miles and other players. Video highlights there of Fournette in playoff win over STM. ETA: Now no longer a freebie - dem bitches

i love this kid and hope we land him...but everytime i see an article on him his weight is heavier... now idk if this is the writers jus hyping his weight and height up but from that video compared to all his others it looked like he is loosing speed and idk if its from weight or what....he is still fast but i just hope st aug doesnt run him to death before getting to lsu

If he is planningon playing for les, he better gain weight,and be able to hold it. he will be an inside runner period if he signs with us.

He looked pretty quick to me. He didnt have a ton of blocking honestly. He seemed to have to run a little tentative to set guys up to miss tackles. A few times he turned it on and looked to have plenty of burst. I think he is gonna be just as advertised.

Everybody I talk to that have played against him says he's the real deal!!! I don't know why, but he don't look 6'3" 230 on film Would be a great commitment if it happens. As we've seen in the past, it's hard to bank a kid until the papers come across the desk. Great to get a commitment... Even greater to get it in writing...

He's very athletic and has great feet, but he's not very fast.... His ability to break through tackles and make guys miss is fantastic, but a speedster he is not.

6'1" 215-220 about right for his size? I don't know where he speed knock comes from, he's plenty fast. I read that he met Darrell Williams for the first time this weekend. Hope they hit it off and want to become our version of Marshall and Gurley in 2014.
