Leonard Fournette was the number one running back in the 2014 high school class, and number two overall behind only Myles Garrett. He had offers from all over the country, but decided to sign with his home state LSU Tigers.

Standing at 6’1 240 pounds, Fournette is a thickly built man with a very powerful lower half. He is a north-to-south downhill runner with an upright running style. He loves contact and does a great job of lowering his center of gravity to meet defenders in the hole.
