LB - trev Faulk . Didn’t he start and call the defense during his freshman year?

Since we are not including redshirt freshmen, the QB would be Herb Tyler. Like Johnson, didn't start until late in the season, but had big wins over Arkansas and Michigan State in Indy Bowl.

Great pull on Mark Roman but I’m seeing a different stat line.
Roman’s freshman year (1996)
TKLs- 58 (you had 74)
TFL- 2 (you had 6)
Sacks- 0 (you had 2)
INTs- 4
Passes defended- 6
(He also had a pick 6)
Outstanding freshman campaign for sure but either you misread the stat line or LSU.Net misprinted the stats I’m looking at.

The Honey Badger was well beyond Stingley. Not even close.

Wasn’t OBJ pretty bad his freshman year though? Or was it his sophomore slump that I’m thinking of?

I think you can basically say TM7 and Stingley played different positions. TM7 was a safety/CB hybrid. Stingley lined up as a traditional CB the whole time.
I think they can both be on the list

I went by his LSUsports.net bio LINK
But I see the season stats that you're referring to on the season stats page ( LINK). not sure why the discrepancy.
To my earlier point, his bowl stats as a freshman weren't included, but weren't necessarily great. 5 tackles, and a blocked FG if I'm reading this right.

No chance
Stingley was so much better as a true freshman. Peterson had some real growing pains
Pat had a way better sophomore year though

K Faulk was ready from minute 1
Hodson came in against aTm and never looked back

He ran all over #4 Florida as a freshman in 1982.
