LSU football: Texas Tech DC heaps praise on Leonard Fournette

The LSU football program has come to be known in recent years for its dominant running game. With arguably the most talented running back in the country lining up in the backfield in Leonard Fournette, such is more true than ever this season.

Fournette has proven why he was lauded as the next Adrian Peterson before he took the first snap of his collegiate career, displaying a rare combination of speed, strength and instincts that has landed him among the company of the best running backs the SEC has ever seen. He leads the nation with 158.
