Cecil Collins when he wasn't trying to rape people...... Otherwise, I would say Josh Reed since he was basically unstoppable as a senior. Also, I guess from days gone by Billy Cannon and Bert Jones wouldn't be too shabby.
the question was asked for a guy you would keep..."for 20 years". I would want to stabilize LSU's most common instable component: the Field Goal team im going with stability in special teams and choosing kicker wade richey. of course he would stay at age 17, since that's when he reached his peak.
Yes, I know all about Y.A & Bradshaw.... and I did say talented and that is based on Bert's all around athletic ability. He was much more than just a hard thrower, he fast actually pretty fast, had very good balance and just as strong of an arm as Bradshaw and much more touch while in college. I saw him play most of his games while at LSU including most on the road and I've never seen a guy like that in college. I also saw Terry play a few times for LA Tech and he was great, I'm not knocking him. Y.A. was a little before my time and I never got to see him in person and I've actually seen very little footage of him in action as they oly tend to show the championship footage from back then but I'm sure he was a great athlete also. I just think Bert was a gem, the only other QB who ever impressed me as much or more with his arm was Elway.
good post... i dont know about shutouts but if fast enough he would be incredible calling signals on defense for Nick. with that said always thought greg jackson didnt get the credit he deserved.
