Here is a list I constructed of the top LSU FB players of all time in my mind. Not sure why it’s 33 but that just happens to be where I stopped the list at. Looking forward to where y’all would adjust some of these players/put other players on the list etc. Looking for some more perspective from fellow Tiger fans.

1. Joe Burrow
2. Billy Cannon
3. Kevin Faulk
4. Tyran Mathieu
5. Tommy Casanova
6. Patrick Peterson
7. Glenn Dorsey
8. YA Title
9. Leonard Fournette
10. Jammar Chase
11. Josh Reed
12. Dalton Hilliard
13. Bert Jones
14. Gaynell Tinsley
15. Jerry Stovall
16. Johnny Robinson
17. Justin Jefferson
18. Corey Webster
19. Marcus Spears
20. Charles Alexander
21. Devin White
22. Laron Landry
23. Ron Sancho
24. Ali Highsmith
25. Wendell Davis
26. Jim Taylor
27. Tyson Jackson
28. Alan Faneca
29. Kevin Mawae
30. Morris Claiborne
31. Ciron Black
32. Bradie James
33. Micheal Brooks
34. Jacob Hester

Truly a rich and remarkable history of talent.

Having Michael Brooks at 33 is criminal

Y.A. Title should not be on this list imo, or at least no where near that high. He was great in the NFL but not sure that a guy who was never an All-American deserves to be #8.

Impressive list.

Not sure Ali Highsmith or Sancho belong.

IMO, Roy Winston, AJ Duhe, Whitworth should be on it.

Nice list, but these two should be on it IMO

It's hard to do these lists since we didn't see a lot of the older guys. Jerry Stovall needs to be higher up. He was Heisman Runner up and lost to Terry Baker b/c he had cancer.

Based on LSU/collegiate career, Stovall probably too low.

Highsmith was not better than Brooks.

Kudos for the Johnny Robinson inclusion. The man was a beast.

And let the argument begin about placement

I don’t know how you rank them, but that list is missing some DB’s, wide receivers, and linemen. This is just a few, but how bout Gabe Northern, Godfrey Zaunbraker, Willie Teal, Warren Rabb, Craig Burns, Laron Landry. That’s to name just a few. All of Burrow’s receivers, and so many more whose names I can’t remember.

Ciron Black? No way.

Nacho Albergamo belongs, Andrew Whitworth belongs. I would also argue George Bevan belongs.

Ron Sancho was really good, but I'd replace him with Warren Capone. Overall nice list, rankings could always be debated.
