Nutriaitch Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 as you all know, my Dawg is leaving early to pursue a career in the NFL. Is he an all-time stud? probably not, the list of DBs to come through LSU is way to long and distinguished for him to make that list. but damn if we wasn't just a solid all around player that busted his ass every snap for the Tigers. Sort of in the mold of another DB that doesn't get the credit he deserves, Brandon Taylor. so here we go, the career of Jay Freaking Ward: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutriaitch Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 2019 - True Freshman Mostly used on Special teams (secondary was loaded that year), was able to get into 13 games on a National Championship team. Broke up a couple passes against Oklahoma in the playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutriaitch Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 2020 - Sophomore Season. the year he became a true dawg. Opening week, bounces back from knee surgery. as in dude was not even supposed to see the field. but when Sting went down the night before the game, Jay stepped up and played the entire game against an Air Raid offense despite not having practiced in a couple weeks. then turned in what might have been his best season here (at least high lights wise) he had the crazy pick vs Florida he blocked a FG against Arky that would have tied the game inside of 2:00 remaining 2 interceptions against Ole Miss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutriaitch Posted December 8, 2022 Author Share Posted December 8, 2022 2021 - Junior Season really established himself as one of the anchors of the secondary. played Safety, Corner, nickle, and dime blocked a FG vs Auburn (first play of this video) ; interception vs Florida (0:45 of this video) ; pick against ULM (1:00 mark) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
