    I see where you're coming from. You'd need an "all-time" roster of LSU athletes to really make sure you cover your bases. Either that, or you could leave an "Other" option for people to write their vote in.

    are you looking for favorites or best at that position?

    reason i ask is because when you get to Safety, there are going to be alot for Jack Hunt, was he the best, no, top 5 probably not, favorite by far.

    The problem is only a few of us have seen RB at LSU as far back as 40s. I would have to bump Taylor for Terry - I forgot about him. Same style - Terry was bigger and maybe faster.

    All of these are fine LSU running backs. But you have to put them behind the four All-Americans: Taylor, Cannon, Stovall, Alexander, and Faulk .

    I'm looking for the best, but people can determine that however they wish.

    Very nice! I'm not sure everyone else read the "All-Time" part of the title.

    well if youre gonna just do that then just add up AA and All Sec accolades. thats no fun. i choose to look at how coaches would analyze them if they tried out for the team in their prime.
