FOOTBALL: Dalton + James Gang. Faulk & Herb Tyler are right there too, for me.
BASKETBALL: CJ & Shaq were the big names but I LOVED me some Vernel Singleton & Wayne Sims.
BASEBALL: Furniss, Mouton & of course the GOAT, Todd Walker!!!!

I gave football earlier for basketball Mike Darnall. I did not go to or follow baseball in my childhood, that did not become a thing till Skip got here.

My fandom started in 1986 as a freshman, so I’ll go with Harvey Williams.

I am from North La, and the lack of going to games or many on television, I started paying attention in my early teens, I vividly remember listening on the radio and loving the Dalton James gang. Really good memories sitting in the truck around some dove openers with it on the radio. So those two are probably my favorites, and honestly I doubt I knew more than them and Wickersham except for Toby Caston who was from Monroe

The obituary below was published by the LSU Athletic Department:
Jul 11, 2019
Sammy Grezaffi, a darting runner who thrilled Tiger fans with his kick returns and earned All-SEC honors as a defensive back in 1967, has died in his hometown of New Roads at the age of 65.
Grezaffi is survived by his wife, son, daughter-in-law, son-in-law and a granddaughter.
As a senior in 1967, Grezaffi set or tied three school records, including the first 100-yard kickoff return in school history in a game against Tennessee on Oct. 28.
Since then, Eric Martin had the only other 100-yard kickoff return for LSU, in a game against Kentucky in 1981.
Grezaffi also tied a school record for most punt returns in a single game with seven in a contest against Ole Miss in 1967, a season in which he set a school record with 41 punt returns for 369 yards. That mark total still ranks ninth in LSU history and his career total of 905 career punt return yards still ranks fourth in Tiger annals.
Grezaffi also lettered for LSU in 1965 and 1966. He was picked in the seventh round of the 1968 NFL draft with the 184th overall pick by the Kansas City Chiefs, but failed to make the team.
Grezaffi returned to his hometown of New Roads, where he owned several businesses.

As a New Roads boy always loud and proud. He played about 5 years before I can remember anything about LSU football but being he was from my high school alma mater I knew all about him and he sat right next to my cousin on the East side for home games till the time he passed. Good man.
