Who was the 5* LB from up north? Clifton Garrett maybe?

I’m gonna go ahead with Hobie Hotard out of Jesuit high school. The dude won 4 tennis state championships (although he did cheat a lot) in Louisiana and signed a scholarship to play at LSU. The little bastard ended up quitting 2 weeks into his freshman year to become a frat star and now lives in New Iberia with a tranny. Or so I’m told.

I see bigger busts than that walking through the quad everyday.

Chris Davenport in my opinion.A 5 star recruit who did absolutely nothing in his 3 or 4 years at LSU. Clifton Garret is another possibility but if he stayed for more than a year he may have contributed somewhat.

Anthony Johnson did actually start and is actually in the NFL, so I don't think he qualifies.

he's been on 5 different teams in 4 seasons and has been on the practice squad for the most of it. sure he started at LSU but was average at best. When you're tabbed as a transcendent player and the #1 player in your class, that's a huge bust

fess Irvin is the answer

saw him play in high school. Didn't get the love for him, even then. Wasn't surprised he didn't pan out.

If you don't know who Chris Pettaway is you don't know LSU football.
