Google is your friend.

The guy was making a joke because LSU recently had a starting DT named Charles Alexander. However, he was nowhere near the football player of the RB Charles Alexander.

Charles Alexander

That's a helluva class to be enshrined with...

Was it Billy Sims who beat him for the rushing title his senior year?

Same here, only reason I ever watched the Cincinatti bengals. I thought it was cool the he went from a Bengal Tiger, to the Bengals.

I was a freshman in the fall of 1978. Still remember the first time I crossed Alexander in Allen Hall.

He appeared to be as wide as a defensive lineman, and just as tall.

He always seemed friendly to everyone around him, good guy.

Should be more than 7 players from LSU in the College Football Hall of Fame.

LSU players previously inducted into the hall of fame (with year of induction) include Stovall (2010), Cannon (2008), Casanova (1995), Doc Fenton (1971), Ken Kavanaugh (1963), Abe Mickal (1967), and Gaynell Tinsley (1956).

They will be moving this museum from South Bend, Indiana to Atlanta, when construction is completed in downtown Atlanta, next Fall.
