Cue the "so you're telling me there's a chance!" photos/.gifs. Great news to get him on campus.

Get him on campus, anything can happen.
Apparently he hasn't even been in contact with the coaches yet, so it's still way too early to get your hopes up. That having been said, this is only good news!
It sounded to me like that was because his dad handles all his recruiting stuff for him.
You're a BALLER!
but I am excited that we have a program again that brings the Peppers, Hands and Fournettes to campus. It would be beyond fortunate to get Fournette.
One might even say it would be Fourtunette.
Sorry, back into my hole now.
I see what you did there.
I'm not sure we really had visitors of this caliber during the richrod years. If Fournette comes on campus, that will have meant we'd have the #1, #2, and #3 overall plyers (per 247 comp) this year. I think it's big just to be a place where top talent checks out because you're gonna get a few of those guys (Green, Peppers, etc)
I remember, not too long ago, we would go to the dance and make eye contact with a lass then should would dance with some other fella. Now we get a dance and get the digits afterwards.
Hoke!
There is a short article from the other day which quotes Fournette on the situation (HERE).
"I haven't scheduled any official visits just yet. I might try and go up and visit Michigan though. I want to check them out and see everything there."
It also mentions that, as far as 247Sports knows anyway, he plans to make a decision after this coming season.
It's like hurrying over to Jared's to buy a wedding ring because the smoking hot chick who works at the food court in the mall smiled at you when you paid for your chili cheese fries.
Will Peppers be here as well for his visit? That couldn't hurt.
Peppers is supposed to come in late July for the BBQ, but Fournette's visit is scheduled about two weeks before that. I doubt Peppers will be there.
At least he will be visiting. Better than nothing I guess.
Is he any good???
/s is the worst thing to ever happen to the internet.
Fournette's taking an official at UM?!
I just shipped my pants.
