LSU coach Les Miles says running back Leonard Fournette is no longer in a walking boot and should return to return practice tomorrow. Miles says wide receiver Travin Dural has returned to practice from an undisclosed injury and the head coach says the senior had a couple of nice catches in yesterday’s scrimmage. Miles says quarterback Brandon Harris completed 12 of 15 passes for 133 yards.

Former LSU Tiger Anthony Jennings has been named the starting quarterback for UL Lafayette’s season opener against Boise State. Cajuns Coach Mark Hudspeth says they believe Jennings gives them the best chance to be successful. Jennings beat out Jordan Davis and Jalen Nixon for the job.

The season opening contest between the Tigers and Wisconsin Badgers is 10 days away and the Badgers have yet to name a starting quarterback. It will be either Alex Hornibrook or Bart Houston. Houston is a fifth-year senior, while Hornibrook is a redshirt freshman.
