    I got this idea from the "Dan Patrick Show"

    What 4 LSU football players would have their faces carved in stone on LSU's Mount Rushmore...

    feel free to throw in Basketball and Baseball's Mt. Rushmore

    Thats a very very hard question and I see you didn't give an answer.:dis::dis: Thats one I'm going to have to think about a while to give you four but two I can give you quick are Cannon and Hilliard. Hilliard because he was always one of my favorites, hard working and humble yet one hell of a player. Cannon, well I don't think I need to explain that one here.:grin::grin::grin:

    Hmmmmm

    Obviously Billy Cannon is there. I'll put Bert Jones on there too. Kevin Faulk. My last guy is Chad Lavalais. There should be a guy from this years team and Chad did so much for this team. And I'm a youngin, so I don't know LSU football too far back.

    Yeah, its a very hard question.....I just heard it on the Dan Patrick show and then posted it. Its a question you will have to think about for awhile before reaching a decision.

    As of right now mine is

    Billy Cannon
    Kevin Faulk
    Bradie James (one of my favorite all-time players)

    Coaches: Saban, Bertman, Dietzel, Brown

    Athletes: Maravich, Cannon, Todd Walker, Brad Cresse
    (I'd rather have a member of this year's football team over Cresse, but there just isn't one player that defined the team.)

    If I had to pick an MVP off of this years team it would be Lavalais. Hard worker that never took a play off and led by example, he also seemed humble never cocky.:geaux: :lsug:
