Theres a new guy at work that claims he played for lsu under Nick Saban. I think hes full of bologna. Is there any way I can look up the roster or something to see if he was ever on the lsu team. he says he didnt play any of the game sbut was on the bench. How can I found out if hes bluffin?

Can you share the name? He could have tried to walk-on and never got a spot on the roster but he is still pulling your chain.
His name was Jeremiah Johnson, and they say he wanted to be a mountain man. The story goes that he was a man of proper wit and adventurous spirit, suited to the mountains. Nobody knows whereabouts he come from and don't seem to matter much. He was a young man and ghosty stories about the tall hills didn't scare him none. He was looking for a Hawken gun, .50 caliber or better. He settled for a .30, but damn, it was a genuine Hawken, and you couldn't go no better. Bought him a good horse, and traps, and other truck that went with being a mountain man, and said good-bye to whatever life was down there below.
Maybe he didn't play football for LSU but the guy is still famous. They made a movie about him. Robert Redford (one of my least favorite actors) played his part:
