  08/24/21 - RB Ygenio BookerrJr/2024, Tulane

  Fourth-year running back Ygenio Booker's touchdown catch at Tulane's Thursday morning practice prompted a celebratory jump bump from coach Willie Fritz on the sideline. It will not be the only one if the versatile Booker, a Brooksville, Florida product who sometimes lines up as a receiver, continues playing as well as he has in preseason camp. To get the love from Fritz, he raced to the end zone and outleaped cornerback Reggie Neely for a 37-yard grab on a 50-50 ball from quarterback Justin Ibieta. "He's very explosive," Fritz said. "He has great speed, excellent hands and a great burst. He's running full speed in four or five yards. Sometimes it takes them 15 yards to get running full speed."

Largely because of injuries, Booker, classified as a redshirt sophomore because of the free COVID year, still is waiting for a breakthrough in games. His career statistics are 25 carries for 130 yards and nine catches for 71 yards. His numbers should be much healthier this season. "I feel great," he said. "I'm just coming out here and having fun every day, playing the game like a backyard type of fun, how I grew up. I go 100 percent every time because you never know when it's your last play." - New Orleans Times Picayune
