Did you guys see this tweet. LINKhttps://twitter.com/DellengerAdv


Tease to weekend story on Leonard Fournette:
Came down to #Bama-#LSU. Fournette's dad: "Alabama never had a chance."

I am not good at coping links but i am sure someone seen this. Love it.

I just read the article and that statement is in the article.

Love it

Good article. I hope he's too young to remember Shaun Alexander and hasn't factored payback into his goal

Knowing LF and the high goals he sets for himself, I'd guess it is hitting the 200 yard mark. I bet he sees this game as the one that really puts him on the map, and he would probably be correct.

I love that he sets goals that almost everybody else feels is impossible to reach. People that are as good as him, and that always walk into whatever they are doing and instantly become the best at it need to reach for the stars. At the end of the day, you may not reach them but I'm sure he will look back on the season after its over and say, "I may not have accomplished it all, but it turned out pretty damn good. Now I'll keep working to accomplish it next season."

Love the kid and his attitude. I fully expect him to be among the top 5 to ever put on the purple and gold (in any sport) by the time he is done at LSU and moves on to make the big $$$ in the NFL.

We will have 2 more years of greatness, and I will enjoy every second of it.

My guess is since he wrote it before he started playing in the SEC, he will not have to reach that goal for LSU to win. With the help of the OL,TEs, and FBs, if he comes remotely close, I'll feel good about LSU winning.

I don't feel bad about it now.

Buga gonna run wild, Saban might run on the field and try to stop him only to be knocked out by a buga thigh.

I would love hardly anything more than for Leonard to run Landon Collins the frick over on a pivotal 4th quarter run, stepping on his face as he does so.

Yeah, Saban and his horseshite of "don't feel pressured to pick LSU because it's home". If he was still the head coach here he would have told him he was obligated to stay home and represent the state of Louisiana.

“He specifically has a goal for the Alabama game,” the coach continued. “Alabama was the only school mentioned in the list of goals.”

Love this, The love he has for LSU and knowing the rivarly with Alabama. GOAT.
