Found this gem looking for some of LF's highlights from UF game last year. I got sucked into this...my head hurts now.

34:10 "I think it dispels the myth about him....I don't think he is a special back"

Scout Report Leonard Fournette

Matt Waldman is a great scout. He was right about everything he said. I can't wait for him to do a video for Fournette this season.

How was he right about him not being special?

He wasn't special last year. He is this year.

Waldman usually does videos on draft-eligible players so the Fournette video was an exception. Obviously Fournette has come a very long way since the Florida game.

Oh he will. I need to check if he's done any articles on him.

Who tweeted at him?

What? He rushed for more yards than any lsu freshman, ever, and led the sec in all purpose yards as a true freshman.

When you say a guy isn't special...you are making a declarative statement about his ability. You don't say, he's not special right now.

You might make the comment that it was dumb of him to make that call so early in Fournette's career, but make not mistake, Fournette was special. Waldon wasn't able to identify that.

He was very good but you're using the word special. He wasn't anything like he is this year.

I don't care what you say or what you think of the evaluation. He developed throughout the year but he was a far cry from what people said he would be as a freshman. This year he's progressed much more. As I said, Waldman normally looks at draft-eligible players and said what he was if he were draft-eligible. Obviously things have changed.

Admit he was wrong? About Fournette not being special? The video came out before this season. There was talk of Leonard winning the fricking heisman as a freshman so it was a far cry from "special"

Get the hell out of here if you're going to be ignorant

Matt Waldman is a huge douche who is envious of LF#7, explain 1000 yards as a freshman in the SEC. explain 600+ in 3 games this year, 2 of those games against SEC west RANKED opponents.

Hey Matt, LF#7 has a bigger cock than you, he is more of a man than you and he will make more money in one year than you will ever make in a lifetime.

Look at how many carries he had last year and see how many he is getting this year. I think if he had the same load then he would of put up similar numbers last year.

3 games into his sophomore season dude. Pump the damn brakes. Obviously he's been very good so far and he's looked "special" in those three games. Let it play out. Nothing is guaranteed.

Vision and lateral agility are the last things to look for. Body of work needs to grow as well.

I agree. Let's see if he can continue to get better. Don't crown him yet.
