Leonard Fournette struck Heisman pose after first collegiate touchdown (Video)
LSU running back Leonard Fournette was among the more sought-after recruits from the 2014 class and No. 1 on ESPN’s top 300 list.
Fournette’s college career got off to a slow start with just 18 yards on eight carries last week against Wisconsin.
On Saturday, the freshman found yards easier to come by with Sam Houston State as the opposition. In the first quarter alone, Fournette registered 47 yards on six carries and found the end zone for the first time as an LSU Tiger.
After crossing the goal line, Fournette struck a pose resembling that of the Heisman Trophy, which apparently didn’t go over well with head coach Les Miles.
Leonard Fournette is experiencing that freshly cut lawn smell … Les Miles just chewed him out for that Heisman pose.

Brent Musburger was right in saying it’s probably a little early to be striking a Heisman pose, but sometimes youthful exuberance takes over.
