I was listening to Songy on signing day interviewing Jonah Austin. They was talking about some freshman running back phenom from St. Aug. Who is this kid, is he really that good. Is it to early to start recruiting him?

Frank owns St. Aug.

It's a well accepted idea.

Im excited about him but at the same time I have seen plenty of guys who are just amazing early on then drop off because they hit their peak early..If that is not the case, look for him to be a top 5 prospect come his senior year..aka Joe Mcknight

Recruitnik question, not to familiar with N.O. area schools but is St. Aug = Evangel of New Orleans (Private School/D1 Factory) or is there another school even more productive at churning out top talent.

St. Aug has definitely produced legit football players.

Can't really find another school in the area that compares with them

John Curtis = Evangel

St. Aug has alot of great talent but was hit hard by Katrina and has been building back ever since..they put out solid underrated skill players each year, many kids from that area are unknown and their coaches dont do an excellent job of getting them out to the public but when you have a guy like Wilson on staff that stays in those schools looking for the talent we have the edge..But this kid wont be overlooked by anybody IF he continues to produce like he did this past year

By the way, the name is Leonard Fournette.

Even without Turner, Austin, and the entire D-1 caliber O-line/TE he had this year, this kid looks good enough to still get his yards. In my opinion, St. Aug was the most talented 5A team this year, 12 D-1 signees, that is off the charts. Fournette just needs to stay healthy and he will be a national recruit. Making 5A All-State as a freshman, and MaxPreps All-American is quite a way to start. I beleive LSU has already offered him.

just watch


damn

i heard he was good but thats the first film ive seen of him

And while it will be interesting to see what he can do without Turner and Austin blocking for him, they werent the ones breaking tackles, outrunning people, and breaking ankles in the open field.

Can he just skip the rest of highschool and let him play next year? He can take soph, jr, and sr years in two year increments to get credit for them ala the great school teacher/hotel tycoon Bill Madison.
