Heres one:
Only one time in the history of the Touchdown Club of Houston, an OL has made the Offensive POY. At age 15, he began having seizures, which were later diagnosed as epilepsy. He started on medication to control it and was able to continue playing football. Allowed only one sack in his last season, ended up with 210 pancake blocks in his collegiate career. He ended up as one of the better OL in LSU history.

Good one, I put this one up a few weeks back.

What Pro Football HOF by not having the grades to get into LSU, had to start out at Hines Community College?

Good one........

This former LSU Football player starred as an offensive guard. He was one of the few players to play in all four of the Vikings Super Bowl appearances. He was switched to LB in the Pros......

To add:

Winston delivered one of the most devastating tackles ever filmed. In a game against the Miami Dolphins in 1972, fullback Larry Csonka circled out into the flat to catch a pass. Just as he caught the pass, Winston hit him from behind with such force that the 240-pound Csonka was nearly cut in half. The tackle was so grotesque it was shown on The Tonight Show. Csonka dropped the ball and rolled on the field in agony. He thought his back was broken and literally crawled off the field (he was not seriously injured, however). After their respective retirements from the NFL, Winston and Csonka remained close friends. Csonka invited Winston to be his guest when Csonka was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Back in Moonie's day, the Seniors would perform a dummy smashing drill. Moonie was by far the best.
He also played baseball for the Tigers as in the outfield. He didn't look the part, but he was an athlete.

Yep, to go from OG to LB is a big change.
Can you name two other LSU players that changed positions in the Pros?
