If you had to pick your top 8 LSU football players of all time who do you got?

I picked (4) Old School players and (4) "newer" players. Its alot harder then you think.

Old School
1. Billy Cannon
2. Y.A. Tittle
3. Bert Jones
4. Jerry Stovall

New Players
5. Tyrann Mathieu
6. Devin White
7. Jacob Hester
8. Kevin Faulk

Kevin Faulk is a "new" player lol. Tyrann was good but to have him and not PP7 is disrespectful. Jacob Hester is a fan favorite but him above Guice or LF7, noooo.

Old School - Tommy Casanova and Jim Taylor

New School - Patrick Peterson

I do not think Jacob Hester is top 4

Any list without Tommy Casanova not #1 is just laughable.


Only 3 time all American in LSU football history.

Besides listing Jacob Hester as one of the 8 best players to ever play LSU football? The exclusion Casanova is pretty hilarious too.

Why?

And I don’t really care if he’s 8 or 9 or 15th... grand scheme of things does it really matter?

He was a badass, dependable, tough, producing football player at LSU who made his team better.
