Brian was out of the NFL, he was coaching football at Parkview in BTR. He got a call from player personnel from the Patriots.


Belichick called Saban and Saban recommended Brian.

Brian immediately went outside and started long snapping with some of the players when he got the call for a tryout.

Well, dang, since the late 60s/early 70s there have been a lot of the brothers playing football at LSU.

In fact most of the team today are brothers.


Oh wait, you meant as in SIBLINGS?

Never mind.

I don’t know of 3 more brothers that played, but Jarvis Green, Howard Green, and Skyler Green were all first cousins. That family had some good genes.



Jarvis had a twin brother, they along with Howard played in Donaldsonville. Skylar played in NOLA at Higgins High.

This.
I had calculus class with Ben in 1973. He was a receiver for the football team. We had a trip to Auburn that fall and had a calculus test coming up the Friday before the game. We had to get permission to take the test early, and since I was in the Tiger Band, I requested with our calculus teacher to take the test early. Ben sat next to me and asked me to ask the professor to get him the early test as well. When I made the request for Ben, the prof asked me, “Oh, is he in the band as well?”

Sid Fournet

Fournet played for Louisiana State University (LSU) from 1951 to 1954 under coach Gaynell “Gus” Tinsley. He was a versatile player who could play both guard and tackle positions on both sides of the line. He earned four varsity letters and was a three-time All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) selection. He was also named to the 1954 Consensus College All-America team as a tackle. He was inducted into the LSU Athletic Hall of Fame in 1971



Sid's younger brother Emile Fournet

Played on the Chinese Bandits squad during the 1958 National Championship season.



Both from Bogalusa
