Which one? They had one from Curtis named Chris Howard and then they had one from Winnfield named Anthony Thomas aka the a-train.

Lol, archie would have never allowed one of his sons to play at LSU. They were never even considering LSU, believe that...and it had nothing to do with who our coach was or anything other than ole miss absolutely hates LSU and archie is ole miss royalty, therefore, he and his family hate LSU.

Benoit Benjamin-7'0 High School Basketball All American that went to CREIGHTON over LSU. The youngsters on this board will not recognize that name, lol. With him, LSU is a Final Four contender.


C-A-R-R-O-L-L, CARROLL CARROLL, that be how it's spelled(that was the chant back in the 80s)! How does a kid from Carroll High School in Monroe, Louisiana end up at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska? A head coach from NE Louisiana by the name of Willis Reed. LSU never had a chance.

I recall being upset when the highly touted Joe McKnight spurned our state for Hollywood.
I felt the same way when Shea Patterson opted for Ole Miss.

Another one I felt like this about was John David Booty

You sure you aren't thinking of Travis Minor? Warrick Dunn had a HUGE chip on his shoulder. He only hung out with a few people at Catholic, and didn't act like "one of the guys."

Marshall Faulk didn’t spurn LSU. LSU only wanted him as a CB like almost everyone else. SDS was one of the few schools to offer him as a RB.

Benoit Benjamin left to play for his dad, Willis Reed at Creighton.

Warwick Dunn is one of the few that truly spurned LSU that I don’t blame one bit.

Can’t blame him here. There’s only a few Catholic alums I would hang with either.

Joe Ferguson & Terry Bradshaw (although Bradshaw didn't dismiss LSU, he just was academically challenged!)

Keith Smart. I wonder why Dale couldn't get him to LSU.

Ike Hilliard gets my vote.
He could have played with brother Ivory at LSU but went to be an All-American at Florida.
