this is probably correct but Eric Hill was one hell of an athlete in football, track and basketball and played a long time in the NFL.
He went to nationals in track.

Kenny Bordelon, All SEC linebacker 1975, drafted by the rams and traded to the Saints in 1976. Played against him in grammar school NORD leagues. and remember him being a game wrecker. He was on the Brother Martin 1971 State Champtionship team. A great athlete and a great guy.

Tioga High School

Chris Williams

Still holds LsU career interceptions at 20.

Tied for single season LSU record with 8

2 time first team all SEC in 78 and 80.
1 time second team all SEC in 79.

Played both sides at Tioga.

Was before my time but his picture hung in the trophy cases.


After that…. Probably Aaron Epps on the basketball team.

My late great friend Stephen Humphries who signed with LSU as a pitcher in 1981 from Belaire HS in Baton Rouge.. As a freshman he had a 4.96 ERA which was 4th best on the team that season. Great guy who passed in 2022.

Should have signed Dana Moore who was our punter and FG kicker in 1979. Dude consistently hit 60 yd punts and 50 yd FG. One of the best in the country but LSU politics had them sign another kicker and he went to Mississippi St. Beat LSU next 3 years and he was a big factor in those wins as well as beating #1 Alabama with a FG in 1980.

I don't think Broadmoor sent anyone of note to LSU.


Allen Stansberry(class of 1993) was damned good for LSU. He led the team in tackles in 1995 and 1996.
