After having posted page 1 I thought about this subject.
An easy argument can be made for Steve Ensminger when you look at his overall body of work at LSU.

I commissioned Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame artist, Christopher Brown to paint who I considered to be LSU Legends. I went back and forth on who should be on it and why. Obviously this was BEFORE the magical 2019 season.

LSU Legends Painting
Players
Devin White
Y.A. Tittle
Glenn Dorsey
Bert Jones
Tyrann Mathieu
Billy Cannon
Tommy Casanova
Kevin Faulk

Coaches
Paul Dietzel
Bo Rein
Les Miles
Charlie McClendon
Nick Saban

This is very much an opinionated piece. Who I think should be on the painting versus who someone else might think should be on there could be very different.

LET THE ARGUING BEGIN

Dorset should be based on everything he did

Kevin Faulk
Rohan Davey

I would have to insert Patrick Peterson ahead of Mathieu. Dude was just the best player in the field. He represents LSU as you would expect someone in and off the field.

no douby..Casanova may have been the greatest all around football player to ever wear the purple and gold.
It is a hard thing to just pick out four players. Guys like Jim Taylor, Fred Miller, Bert Jones and Fournette would be hard to leave off the mountain..LOL
But I will stick with mine.
