I wasn't sure if you were serious so I looked it up and no shite he attended LSU in early to mid 80s. Says he was on the football team as a DL after they cut the wrestling program. Also played for the rugby club at LSU and was a bouncer at a bar in Baton Rouge, but didn't specify which one.



He was good buddies with Robbie Dauterive (brother martin wrestling coach) who also played rugby at LSU. Apparently was a pretty cool guy.

Lorenzen was at Kentucky during my time at LSU. Dude was a unicorn for sure.

“The Battleship Lorenzen” was a classic too.

His genetics are that of a 500 lb man. His football ability kept his health issues at bay, but the moment his playing career ended he was on the clock.

I hope he gets better. An infection isn't per se a death sentence.

The few other rare guys with his size and ability usually bevome WWE wrestlers and don't like a long life. The Generics that give you that size and ability are the same ones that kill you,

Hope he pulls through. He was as tough a competitor as you could find. His arm was like a rocket throwing that ball. Prayers from Card Nation to Mr. Lorenzen

Wasn’t he recently on some kind of weight loss journey and then stalled out?



Yeah and he has his own YouTube channel chronicling his journey I guess.

Why not a gastric bypass surgery? If he pulls through this he needs to do the surgery asap.

Fat arse could throw the frick out of a football.

Hate Kentucky more than most things in life, and it's a testament to his character and ability that I respect this cat. Hope things turn around for him.

He's the only player I recall who could throw for 350 against your team and still make you smile and laugh out loud in appreciation of his unique gifts.

Prayers sent. The Lorenzens of this world deserve to lead a much longer life.

He initially lost 100 pounds but he was up to 500 before that.


Could have something to do with his current condition. Supposedly he lost all that weight within a year. Losing too much weight too fast like that can actually cause problems, especially with the heart.
