Fournette Comments on Auction, Arkansas

LSU RB LEONARD FOURNETTE COMMENTS FROM TODAY’S MEDIA SESSION

On the jersey auction that fetched $101,000…
“It’s a proud moment for me and LSU to see that we are giving something to help other people. It’s a great feeling. I was concerned about it at first but the NCAA allowed me to do it and it is one of the best decisions that they have ever made. I didn’t have a number in my mind. I was just hoping that it could help the people that were affected.”

On why he chose to auction the jersey off…
“It reminded me so much of Hurricane Katrina and knowing we really didn’t get much help from anyone.
