"Casanova was an afterthought in the
recruiting wars (scrimmage, really) of 1968 – a kid who seemed to have
potential, but certainly not a "can't miss'' prospect and certainly not a prime
target for dozens of football programs. In a nutshell, Casanova was a
"take-him-or-leave-him" prospect who drew interest from only three colleges, all
within 150 miles of his hometown of Crowley in Louisiana's Cajun Country:
Louisiana-Lafayette, Tulane and LSU."

This was a 1968 preview not 1969.

Hellman was a junior and Casanova was a freshman and freshmen didn't play then.

Dang...how'd you afford season tickets at age 8?
I still have my parent's old accounts for LSU and the Saints. My name is on the wall honoring the original Saints season ticket holders who still have their original accounts even though I was 9 at that time. Everything was cheap back then. I still have my ticket stub for the January 1970 Super Bowl. It cost $15.00.
