COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Hours before he's set to walk across the stage for a college degree he was never sure he'd get, Marcus Lattimore sits in his living room, watching a post-NFL draft show.
As highlights of former Ohio State standout running back Ezekiel Elliott appear, Lattimore isn't sold. He likes Elliott's power and play away from the ball, but his overall speed needs work, Lattimore says, and he doesn't see him as "the complete back" yet.
"Not like Fournette," Lattimore says, speaking of LSU junior star Leonard Fournette, who will no doubt be a Heisman favorite again in 2016.
