Johnny Robinson, Safety
Kevin Mawae, Center
Robinson was a truly gifted athlete and played on the 1958 National Championship team.
Mawae was a premier center. He played on some awful LSU teams but was obviously talented.
They join former Tigers Y.A. Title, Jim Taylor and Steve Van Buren in the HOF.

Well deserved !
I am an old guy. Robinson was a favorite of mine back in the sixties with the Chiefs.

Mawae was a great Jet. One of the best interior lineman to suit up.
Congrats to both

Were he and Faneca together? Faneca is one of my favorite Steelers of all time.

No, although each played for the Jets at different times. Mawae graduated from LSU before Faneca entered LSU.
I would imagine Faneca will get in eventually, along with Boselli since they didn't get in this year. Faneca had a long productive career. Boselli was obviously a premier tackle but didn't play long which has hurt him.

Gotcha, Thanks. I knew they were at the prime of their careers early 2000s but wasn't sure about LSU days.
