The second of three straight LSU All-American linebackers, he was particularly noted for a legendary play at Auburn in 1970 when he stopped a runner on fourth and goal from the one-inch line to secure an LSU victory. An All-American and All-SEC player in 1970, his post-football career as a restaurateur further solidified his legendary status in Baton Rouge.
