I'm gonna get crapped on for saying this but I really don't like the whole "LFU" thing. IMO not one football player is bigger than the team, program, athletic department, or university. It seems kinda disrespectful to label it that way and I know for sure that Leonard doesn't like him getting all of the attention.

Eta: I know it's in good fun though and no harm is meant

An argument can be made that LSU is home to the best college football, basketball and baseball player.

Fournette certainly holds the title as best football player.

Simmons hasn't played a game yet, but if he lives up to the hype he will certainly be the best freshman in the nation..with a claim as the best overall player.

Lange is probably the best pitcher in the nation, and is among the best overall players in college baseball.

Great time to be a Tiger fan. (Not that there isn't a great time to be one)

Irrelevant. Just because I don't think LF is LSU doesn't mean I don't like the guy. "LFU" goes hand in hand with all of the people that say LSU's football team is Leonard Fournette and the rest is garbage.

No one with any credibility is saying that

We've had offensive lineman win weekly SEC awards multiple times (Alexander and Pocic)

NFL scouts are very well aware of the talent on this roster. You can take that to the bank.

He won't be remembered. Too short of a time with the team and school to make an impact and be Thought of like Shaq, Big Baby, Pistol Pete, LF, OBJ, Faulk, Ben McDonald, and others.

He will have to be sick good to be thought of like the others.

Way to read way too fricking much into a light-hearted piece.

Yeah yeah go screw yourself. Sorry that I care about the institution aswell. People often forget that there's an educational side to this all.
