exactly why he shouldn't make the top list

OP said 2nd Greatest LSU Football Player Ever and not if things were different who would be the best.

Casanova but J Rob, different era. May be a tie.

Faulk helped make it cool to come to LSU.

it was always cool to come to LSU, Hallman just made it painfully cool

tyrann mathieu.

followed by stovall and casanova in a tie.

jeremy hill > kevin faulk = dalton hilliard

to that, it's just that every fart a player takes is on some kind of media today, for starters, after BC's realllly memorable moment, did you know that he made a game saving tackle on a goal line stand that saved the game that night? jeez, you whippersnappers, do some research :lol:

My dad won't shut up about it...

Stovall, Casanova, Faulk and Mathieu

Nuff said. That's the perfect tie for second easily though I would make the case for 3x AA Casanova at Number 1... Watching him in person beat the ever lovin hell with elbows to the helmut on AA Notre Dame wide receiver Tom Gatewood was UNREAL!

If y'all don't mind an outsider's view.

I saw both Robinson and Cannon and either one is in the conversation. Cannon was both brutally strong and had sprinter speed. Robinson was just silky smooth, an extremely gifted athlete.

As for the racism crap...Robinson had a great pro career and it was all against White AND Black players, so forget that stuff.

BTW, Ted Williams WAS the GOAT.

The name you're searching for is Alan Faneca. !3 years in the NFL. Nine years chosen for the pro bowl. Nine years All Pro. The guys he was blocking were black or white. He blocked 'em all. He was the best offensive guard in the league. At one point he was the highest paid offensive lineman in the NFL. Re Kevin Faulk - he was fabulous, but when Cecil Collins came on the team Kevin went to second string until Collins suffered a broken leg. Bert Jones name belongs somewhere on that list. I believe Patrick Peterson will end up on that list too. But not yet.

Patrick Peterson! We all have great answers our answers vary because of the position's we like. It's really hard to compare because of the era's. Sure Billy Cannon is LSU's only
Heisman Trophy winner, but put him in this Era where D-linemen run just as fast as him there's no way he wins it now. Billy Cannon is the most famous Tiger of all time I don't think he's the best. That's just my opinion, if Glen Dorsey doesn't get chop blocked against Auburn he would be in the top 2. Their all Tigers they was all great and I love them all! There really is no wrong answer!
