In case you missed it, Nebraska four-star linebacker commit Avery Roberts had an interesting tweet out LSU running back Leonard Fournette, saying that he would "...put him to sleep!" if they ever met on the football field.

The tweet was eventually deleted, but Fournette found out about it and sent Roberts the following personal message, which was screenshotted and tweeted out by the four-star prospect.

Awesome move by Fournette by taking the high road and providing the young football player with some future advice.

Twitter still sucks, but Leonard Fournette makes it suck a lot less.

Would we expect anything less? Fournette is the definition of class.

We are lucky to have such stand up guys like Fournette and Simmons at LSU!

Simmons is not at LSU. Actually, he didn't have any credits last semester either, he dropped out. Not exactly "stand up" material

Sandra Simmons? Yeah, she's very much a class act. Sad that's she's a senior.

Hopefully, they never meet, because it would have to be in a bowl game and Nebraska sucks.

Should have just ignored the "boy" IMO. The kid got the exposure he was looking for.

Based on Fournette saying "boy I know it was a joke", you can tell that kid backed down heavily on what he said right before that.
