It's that time of year again to laugh at Mike Farrell from Rivals who in 2014 said L.Fournette dropped in his overall rankings for not having breakaway, homerun threat speed.

Can we all take a moment to laugh at him again

I am not sure how you could watch his junior year tape and come away thinking that. It takes like 6 minutes for him to have a highlight of him being tackled

It's like he hasn't even watched any of LF's highlights

I mean that comment is just so far from true

I get tired of hearing this from credible people like Bill Polian. He said as long as Fournette runs under a 4.6 he will be fine because he's not going to be making long runs.

Also sick of them saying he doesn't catch the ball well just because they didn't throw it to him enough.

There are aspects of LF's game that can reasonably be critiqued. The fact that he's a threat to house it from anywhere if he can get into the secondary isn't one of them!

Why need breakaway speed when you have breakaway power?

Farrell also ranked Kellen Mond as a 5 star. Rivals is a washed up POS website.

ok. seriously. frick that clown


you have to be ignorant and oblivious to print fricking nonsense like that.


any any any highlight reel will display his breakaway speed




look at the 70+ plus run against USC when he dusts TWO USC DB's or the ND game when he does the same.


Can I just say one more time........frick that guy


the world is laughing at you M Ferret

Trying to think of a non bama game he didn't have a break away run, if not multiple.

The DB's from Auburn can confirm that Leonard Fournette does have breakaway speed.

Well to be fair, in the NFL I doubt you will see him make many long runs..... not many backs even have long runs anymore.
