You can take that to the bank.  He was always better than Greedy, like, prior to his suspension, and last year when he came back and Greedy was expected to be the best in the country.  His injury late last year is, IMO, the reason we lost the TAMU 7 OT game. 

That said, after taking a while to fully recover (assuming he's 100% healthy right now...he wasn't earlier in the season for sure), here's his stats in the last 6 games.

Every now and again, Joe Alleva does a good thing.  I remember how highly rated Fulton was coming out of high school, we really needed him the last 2 years.

August 24, 2018 - Jackson, a sports attorney in Montgomery, Alabama, along with LSU athletic director Joe Alleva and associate athletic director/NCAA compliance Miriam Segar worked feverishly over the last two weeks trying to convince the NCAA of LSU's interpretation of drug testing rules pertaining to Fulton's case. Alleva recently sent a letter in that regard to the NCAA. And in the end, LSU, Jackson and Fulton won.

All Fulton - the No. 6 cornerback in the nation and No. 1 player in the state by Rivals.com out of Rummel High in Metairie in 2016 - has to do now is pass one more drug test in the next day or so, and he is back on the LSU football team after not playing since his true freshman season two years ago.

Without the NCAA's reversal on Thursday, Fulton would have missed the entire 2018 season and had only the 2019 season to play when he would have been a senior. Red-shirt seasons cannot be granted for years in which a player was suspended.
