The entire backfield from the '07 championship team are currently in the league.

Hester- Chargers
Scott-Giants
Murphy-Jax
Holliday- Texans
Ridley-Patriots
Williams- Lions
Quinn Johnson- Titans

Other LSU RB's still in the league:

Kevin Faulk- Pats
Joe Addai- Colts

with ware and ford along with a few others in the fold, is LSU turning into RB U?

and i wouldnt really say we are becoming RB U, sure all of these guys are on the team and make small contributions, but we aren't turning out major NFL talent at the RB position like some of the defensive positions

Um no.

AU, bama, and Georgia are ahead. It isn't because we haven't had the talent, more of an indictment of porter and crowton

True.

I was just talking about LSU though.

I thought it was remarkable how deep our backfield was
