I would take Cannon off this list as a RB. He was a great all around player, but as a RB there is about 10 others I would put on before him.

I took him out and left him at first team punt returner, hard to leave Hilliard out, so I put him in. I guess top 3 is Lenny, Faulk and Dalton

He was the best all-around player in LSU history. He played both ways and made the goal line tackle to save the Ole Miss game AFTER he had made his famous punt return. Imo, he is also the best RB in LSU history, as he would've had even better stats if not for playing both ways, and is (obviously) the only RB at LSU to win the Heisman.

The term is way over-used, but he truly had track star speed and had the build to play in any era. He is RB1 on any LSU list.

EDIT to add
2 time SEC Player of the Year
2 time consensus All-American
