Whether he ends up being a star as a professional doesn't matter. Fans will remember the day they saw him in person and routinely turned what looked like two-yard gains into seven. They'll remember the long-range house calls, regardless of whether they actually counted.

It's always a dicey proposition to canonize a college player. They are college-aged human beings, and those have established industry track records for being erratic and unpredictable.

But it's hard to shake the feeling that years from now, people will get that reverent sound in their voices when they talk about the time they saw Leonard Fournette run the dang ball in the Carrier Dome.

Pretty good article. I wonder how many fans traveled up there from BR.

That's a nice story.

I've never seen anybody like #7 either. Those Syracuse fans got to see someone really special.

Enjoyed the article, thanks for sharing..and this made me chuckle

But it's still somehow possible to say the Syracuse defense did an admirable job. If you take out a 62-yard touchdown run and this 48-yard run off a broken play, Fournette only had 134 yards.



only 134 yards
