Leonard Fournette offers to help LSU student cover tuition
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette stepped up to help a student from his alma mater pay for her final year of college.
On Monday, Jhane Lowsoo, a fifth-year senior at LSU, tweeted a link to a GoFundMe page she started to raise money to help cover half of the $10,000 she owes in tuition (she has since made her Twitter account private). Lowsoo is no longer eligible for TOPS, a financial aid program for Louisiana students, and has been working two jobs to pay for the other half.
Fournette saw Lowsoo's tweet, and said he'd cover the rest:
Looka my dawg dm me yo number I’ll pay the rest for you ........ https://t.co/gy0u0iCs9A
