For the past week, South Carolina has been dealing with devastating floods after unprecedented amount of rainfall descended on the area.
After today’s game between South Carolina and LSU, LSU star running back Leonard Fournette said that he wanted to help out those affected by the flood by auctioning off his jersey and donating the proceeds to the relief efforts in South Carolina.

Update
At first the NCAA decided they weren’t going to allow Fournette to auction his jersey but later changed their mind.
Finally, some common sense coming from the NCAA.
Leonard Fournette can auction his jersey for SC flood victims.

Pretty cool move by Fournette.
