A thinner version of Fournette is halfway through his first spring.

He’s lost about three pounds during the offseason

He'd do a subway commercial, but you know, amateur status.

Pretty sure he lost a pretty good bit of body fat though. His face looks thinner so if he went from 230 at 15% bf to 227 at 12% bf it could make a pretty good difference athletically

Fournette says he didn’t completely digest LSU’s pass-blocking schemes until the bowl game.


he's going to blow up this year IMO... like 1800 yards and 20 TD's....

I think it's possible, but what does that have to do with pass blocking?

I love how people were upset about him not being "as good as expected" last season.

Best guess, it means he'll be more involved on third down.... In reality, not a damn thing.

if we're counting his bowl game stats, then we should count everyone's. which means Faulk has the record. All Eyez on 3, bih.

He was overhyped last year. That's not a surprise considering he was mentioned in the same light as AP and Eric Dickerson. He showed spurts, but he has a long way to go before earning those comparisons.

He seems like a great kid but he needs to work on his English a bit....

Oh shite, here we go again. Hype him until he can't live up to any expectations.

Yeah he really doesn't fit in among star American athletes by speaking like that

I hope not. If he did that, LSU would kiss him goodbye.

Why do so many athletes have children Young?

Children are amazing, but you'd think they'd be smart and pull out or use birth control so they can focus on school and football more.

He's not eligible until after 2016... and if he continues to have 1000+ yard seasons, he's gone by then anyway.
