Can you name me another professional athlete who was a starter for a team that won a Championship for both the flagship school of a state and professional team of a state?

Jamaal Wilkes: Born in Berkeley, California
Played at UCLA: 1971-1974: 3 National Championships
Played for the Lakers:1977-1985: 4 NBA Championships. He won 3 as an LA Laker.

Again I know there is a lot of love for any LSU player on this board especially if they played for the Saints. All I am saying is that he was a pretty good player that was never a #1 or #2 reciever on the team.

And to be completely honest, it did take me some time to find this player

Ahh, if you count other sports, it really opens things up. Read right over where he said "in sports history". But, within the context of football, I believe Devery certainly is rare.

You sure he was never a #2 on the team? How long you been following saints football?

And i stand by my statement. One of the best hometown stories. Naming one other guy doesn't change that.

You backup your argument that DH has not had ONE OF (not THE) best home town careers by naming 1 other guy that you admittedly didn't know and had to google for some time to find? Then call your argument valid after saying DH was never a #2 receiver which is again, wrong? All of this inside an appreciation thread dedicated soley to DH? You're an idiot and have now been Internet dick slapped and tea bagged in the same thread...shame on you
