| Is Travin Dural related to Junius Dural ? I used to love me some Junius.  Reply • Back to Top |
| He doesn't really look much like Junius did in High school, but that was over thirty years ago and my memory is getting fuzzier and fuzzier, about faces in particular. I'm trying to find out info now but I'm pretty sure he's not his kid. Not a really common name but not peculiar, either, in this area. If I can find anything else out, I'll let you know.

| Not sure who that is but Travin's dad is Troy Clement Reply • Back to Top |
| Wasn't his nickname, "urnge"? Reply • Back to Top |
| Probably because of his size, Junius didn't get much press. He proved to be too fragile for the RB position (really for any position at LSU, he was hurt his freshman year and never really panned out) which he played in high school. In his junior and senior year in HS he led the state in rushing (I have no way to verify that via the web). In his junior year (1979) that means he out gained Johnny Hector and his senior year he out gained (barely) Billy Cannon Jr. Interestingly enough, if my memory serves me correctly, both Hector and Cannon snubbed LSU for aTm. Never heard anybody call hi "urnge", I'm assuming that was a feeble attempt at racist humor. Reply • Back to Top |

| Cannon Jr. wound up only having daughters and his youngest is named Billie.. I guess they really tried to keep the name going. Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
