Highlands/Perkins in Baton Rouge in East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana — The American South (West South Central)
Eric Reid
Defensive Back
One of the nation's premier safeties, he was a leader on and off the field for the Tigers for three seasons. An All-American and All-SEC player in 2012, he used his size and instincts on the field to put himself in position to make big plays. His interception at the goal line at Alabama in a 9-6 victory in 2011 ranks as one of the most memorable plays in LSU history.
