Tommy Casanova....late 60s early 70s
(running back, punt returner, kick returner, and defensive back)
In the September 13, 1971 issue of Sports Illustrated, the magazine featured Casanova on the front cover, with the headline: "Tommy Casanova of LSU, Best Player in the Nation."
Trivia: Who was the other Corner when Tommy was playing for LSU?
Cass and Jones were two of the best to play at LSU..
Another trivia: How many 1,000 yd. passing seasons at LSU did Bert have?

I like to hear the views of old-school LSU fans and my brothers would always ask our dad and uncles about the players of the 50-60's and this what was all agreed on by the "old men":
1. Jerry Stovall was great and deserved the Heisman and they felt he was a better all-around player than Cannon.
2. They thought Bert Jones was awful at first, but something clicked in Jones and he became a different player.
3. Casanova was the best LSU player they ever saw!
My lifetime of LSU I like Dalton as my favorite Tiger on offense and either Steve Rehage (?) or Brooks on defense.
The old-timers on this board need to educate the young punks (20's and younger) about who really were the great Tigers of all-time. All in good fun young punks.
