congrats to Kevin Faulk, this award is truly deserved. he was key in turning around an LSU program that had 6 straight losing seasons prior. he outran people, ran over people, made great cuts, caught passes, returned kicks... a great LSU Tiger all around.

Still remember this run in Tuscaloosa in '97. Exclamation point to Alabama's last shutout LINK

Nailed it.

The debt of gratitude Tiger fans owe Kevin Faulk can hardly be overstated. Coming out of HS he could have gone anywhere. He chose us (as Lou noted following 6 straight losing seasons). Likewise, he elected to stay his Sr season. I can't quote it but during his speech he said something along the lines of 'LSU made a commitment to me. I need to honor my commitment to them.' Had Faulk not chosen to come here, Saban wouldn't have wanted to come here.

IMO, the most complete player we've ever had, ever.
