Now that Charles is in, who should be next from LSU?

Jimmy Taylor & Johnny Robinson



I vote for Bert Jones.

Taylor and Robinson are in the PFHOF but not College?
I would think because they were more productive as pro players than college.

I would vote
Jones, then Hilliard, then Faulk, then Davis...

Dalton Hilliard is one of my favorite players, but he just does not have the accolades and gaudy, SEC-leading all purpose yardage that Faulk does.


He past Charles Alexander’s school record for career rushing, finishing with 4,050 (still sixth all-time for the SEC). He’s also eighth in conference history (though just third at LSU) with 5,326 all-purpose yards for his career.

When he left LSU only Bo Jackson & Herschel Walker had more yards rushing.

I know, I know (thus my preface - I'm a big Dalton Hilliard fan) - that and the 44 touchdowns might be enough. Alexander was twice considered for the Heisman. Dalton's problem is he was a contemporary of (and worse, a little younger in age) than Bo and Herschel, and, to some extent, overshawdowed by them in the conference.

If it happens, though, I bet it is after Faulk.
