Fournette said he doesn't worry about what the measurements say; his goals are unchanged.
"I want to be the best player ever to come from Louisiana," he told Rivals.com. "My coaches and parents insist that I don't have anything to prove, but I won't be satisfied until I am the best."
Fournette enters his senior year with 5,828 yards and 72 touchdowns, and he is coming off a season in which he was named the Gatorade Player of the Year for the state. Reaching the all-time marks for the state is certainly within his reach.
The No. 3 player in the Rivals100 figures to be one of the most heavily recruited players in the country, and he said he has been given a wink and a nod by LSU coach Les Miles.
After LSU did not sign a back in the class of 2013, Fournette said he believed Miles was talking directly to him when he said that this upcoming class was in need of a great back who has speed, power and ball skills.
"They're waiting on me," Fournette told Rivals.com.
"I take that as a compliment."
