Is it weird that I had to shower near him in prison style showers without dividers at Broussard hall? He also used to come to my room to ask for a light

Hell, some people would say it's worth more if he did that.

I remember when Faulk broke his legs and state fans thought we were done. Told them at church on Sunday look out for 34. Sure as shut he ran silly all over them.

Weren’t we up late and faced a 3rd and relatively short and instead of giving it to Cecil we rolled Tyler out and he threw incomplete? I know AU would have been laser focused on him getting the ball but think that was probably the case once he had his first 100 yds.

Who cares? I have thousands of autographed cards from players across various sports, Cecil included. I’ve obtained signatures of people who later went on to become murderers. It’s just weird bits of memorabilia. Nothing more, nothing less.

You had to have gotten it signed before all of his stupid criminal shite, he was a hell of a rb for LSU and one of the best we've ever had. It's sad how he wasted all of that natural God given ability like he did. He was going to be great.

He was a creeper, which is terrible but he didn’t rape anybody.

Best LSU RB I’ve seen. Be proud. No player will ever be perfect off the field. Old people cum over Billy Cannon but he wasn’t exactly a model human.

Keep it... or I'll take it off your hands. The guy was a great running back for LSU and he's paid his debt to society. I wonder how many people who downvoted this are catholic and still attend catholic mass? Because countless catholic priests have done far worse than Cecil the Diesel

y’all drop the hammer hard around here!

The diesel had serious impulse control issues

Never forget that Auburn game! He was the best RB in America and a sure 1st Rd pick until he blew it.

Time to move on and forgive the Man. Did the same with Billy Cannon didn’t we? We fly that 20 Jersey proud over Tiger Stadium

To err is human, to forgive divine

Of course not. I still hold on to the memory of seeing him and his cast and crutches sitting down in the downstairs McDonalds at the student union shortly after his injury at Vandy. It was my closest brush with the Diesel as a student.

I will never forget him running out of his shoe against Mississippi State on the road as he ran over and through their entire team. He was special. He just had a mental problem he could not keep under control to really make use of his full potential. Really sad.

Well I guess you are correct in that his career could be described as days and not years.
