LSU probes Fournette family over BUGA Nation site
LSU is investigating whether Leonard Fournette’s family violated NCAA rules by profiting from his name image or likeness through a merchandise site built to sell BUGA Nation apparel. The site launched during LSU’s 2014 opener but quickly halted sales after the owners offered discounts and payments of about $10,000 to Paul Price, Fournette’s family manager, while the family says no name or image was used.
