Yesterday on Jordy Hultberg show, James smith was talking about Leonard. He said he think LSU will be the destination and that LF is a once-every-forty-years prospect. Even went on to compare him to Bo Jackson. I knew he was good but I haven't broken down much film on him. Is this kid really that good? Bo Jackson is high praise for a high school junior but I hope it's no exaggeration.

Kind of ironic that Bo now spends most of his time making Arrows in his shop...
So, Bo knows Arrows.

I just watched the Bo Jackson 30 for 30 show on ESPNU. James Smith is either on crack or we are a lock to win the 2014, 2015 and 2016 Nat'l titles. Id say we better figure out how to get this guy in the Purple and Gold if he even resembles Bo Freakin Jackson

Bo is the best big three athlete of all time. If u havent watched this show u should.

I think that comparison is completely unfair to LF, no matter how good his is.

Come on man. Adrian Peterson is a bit of an exaggeration. Only one Bo.

That's a big stretch of a comparison. Bo was an amazing RB, but he's no Leonard.

At least he didn't compare him to Barry Sanders. I think Barry is the best collegiate RB of all time.

Yeah, I know Barry is about the size of Fournette's right leg.

a lot of kids have been compared to Bo....have yet to see one who even came close. not saying that LF isn't the real deal....just way too early to be comparing him to Bo frickn' Jackson.

get better.

Herschel Walker would be a better comparison.

Bo Jackson was simply a freak of nature...

I don't think you can say Herschel is a better comparison. They had nearly identical speed and Herschel was bigger, so they're definitely in the same echelon of ability in football at least.
