Jamarcus Russell being so lazy and bad.
DJ Chark becomes a true #1.
Danielle Hunter becoming a top 5 D-end.

I know it’s just one play, but Danny Etling’s 90 yard touchdown run was pretty surprising.

Wade Richey.

Absolutely caused cursing in the stands at LSU... And had a NFL career.. I think he went to a pro bowl a few times. I know one year with the 49ers, I don't think he missed but a couple times the whole year.

I thought Trai Turner made a huge mistake declaring with 2 years of eligibility remaining. Guards are rarely in high demand. 5 Pro bowls later, I'm happy to say I was wrong.

Debo. Part-time starter at best and ST guy. Was not the highest rated when he got on campus. Has blossomed in the NFL.

Can’t remember the name but didn’t LSU have a 3rd string corner, that almost never saw PT while at LSU make an NFL roster and even start for a while? I think he was in the league for a few years too.

Russell Shepard surprised the hell out of me. He's had a longer and more productive pro career than a lot of former stud college receivers have had.

Probably the most surprising disappointment was Michael Clayton. Highly productive college receiver and had an outstanding rookie year. Out of the league after about 5 years I think.

From where he was ranked coming out of high school, Russell Gage comes to mind for me.

Glen Dorsey.. I just don't get it. I thought he'd be Aaron Donald before AD was a thing.

David Woodley. Didn’t think he would make the roster more or less be a starter and make it to the Super Bowl under Don Shula and the Miami Dolphins. Was part of the platoon nicknamed Woodstock with backup Don Strock. Signed with the Pittsburgh Steelers but had issues. May he rest his soul. He had some big moments in a short career.

Morris Claiborne being a dud definitely surprised me. He’s still on an NFL roster, but nothing kore than depth at this point. A pleasant surprise though was Deion Jones. I mean we knew he was good at LSU even though just a 1 year starter, but he’s been an excellent NFL player. Al woods becoming dependable longtime NFL starter was surprising as welll. And one more I might throw in there purely off longevity would be Alfred blue.

Corey Webster turned out to be a really good cornerback for the Giants. Played a pivotal role in slowing down Moss, during the Patriots dream season.
