    I was just watching Terry and Jimmy and Howie and they were talking about if Terry had a statue and it got me thinking!!!

    What if LSU were to put full size statues of their great players and use it as a recruiting tool.

    You become a great player at LSU and you get your statue placed outside the stadium!!!

    Hey i came up with the idea. Someone else is gonna have to figure out the guidelines of selection.


    How about we use the LSU football Hall Of Fame.


    And uh it is a long walk around Tiger Stadium i dont think there is a shortage of room.

    They already have the portraits of all the past all americans in the lawton room. It is pretty neat if you have never seen it, you should go in and check it out next time you are at the stadium.

    Josh Reed wasn't an All-American? It seems like he should have been.

    He won the Blitenkoff (sp?) so that's grounds enough for a statue, All-American or not.

    Let's make our own statue gallery! Photoshop images of the players in action into statues, and then we can arrange a massive JPEG for people to look at.

    I think that's a good idea. I can photoshop. Anyone else able to do so?
