re: Best Louisiana Football Player You Played With Or Against

One of my closest friends and teammate was the top DL recruit in the country. This was before the star system but he would easily have been a 5 star. Heavily recruited by LSU, but his mom knew a lot of faculty members, and he didn't want her keeping tabs on him, so he signed with Ole Miss. Came down with Crohn's disease the summer before his freshman year, lost about 60 lbs and was never the same. Played some backup for a couple of years, but wasn't able to keep his weight up, and eventually left the team. Played with/against a lot of great ones, including some future NFLers, but he had as much or more potential as any.
No names, maybe somebody will recognize this guy, or maybe not. It was a very long time ago.

Did he graduate in 1979?
