Craig Burns was one of the best safety's LSU ever had and yet nobody knows about him. he's my best friends dad and is the most humble Tiger FB player I've ever seen.

Jerel Myers and Norman LeJeune.

Speaking of Norman, holy crap, I had no idea this happened.

I think Kirston (sp?) Pittman got lost amidst all the outstanding defensive players we had...maybe even Harry Coleman.

Nicky Savoie


And also my brother, who was a walk-on LB in the early '80's and only played a few downs but had to hit Dalton Hilliard every day in practice...

Nicky Savoie DESTROYED people on special teams. I was going to go with him and Herb Tyler.

Nice pick.

No one has said Jamie Howard. I guess the losing thing turns peopel off.

Seriously though, I don't think Tommy Hodson gets enough credit for how good he was at LSU.

Ramsey Dardar and Leonard Marshall probably don't get the love they deserve. I understand the Dardar situation but I don't judge players after their careers or try not to. The story of his child being killed by a car and the his subsequent crack addiction is one of the toughest stories I've ever heard

Saban didn't "sign" Travis Daniels. He drafted him early in the 4th round because he could play. NFL teams don't waste 4th round pick paying back favors.
