I'll guess my favorites will always be the guys that were there just before, during, and after my time at LSU. Dalton Hilliard, Gary James, Eric Martin, Lance Smith, Michael Brooks, Sammy, Martin, Wendell Davis, Erik Andolsek, Nacho Albergamo, Tommy Hodson, Karl Dunbar, Harvey Williams... Don Redden, Ricky Blanton, Howard Carter, Rudy Macklin, Jerry Reynolds, Nikita Wilson, Ethan Martin, Shaq, Anthony Wilson, Leonard Mitchell, Derrick Taylor, Wayne Sims, Greg Cook... Warren Morris, Joey Belle, Russ Johnson, Ben McDonald, Lyle Mouton, Todd Walker, Mike Sirotka, Chad Ogea, Armando Rios, Paul Byrd... There are so many others over the years, that it's difficult to pick just a few. That's why it's great to be a Tiger. We're good in many sports and have a lot of former players to choose from. I will say that the one guy who always makes a point of supporting LSU and mentions the Tigers at every opportunity is David Toms. He hasn't forgotten his roots and between golf tournaments can be found attending LSU games.
Now this is an impossible question to answer, Baseball: Furnis: to me he symoblizes LSU baseball of the 90s, I pick him over Walker because i played first base as a kid and loved Furnis. Basketball: Chris Jackson: truly unbelievable college basketball player, I wish his condition did not hinder his NBA career because his talents were special. Football: Alot of my favorites left school early (Faneca, Russell, Clayton) so they are excluded from my all time list, so that leaves me choosing between James, Landry, Wilkerson, Booger, Dorsey, and Mawae: my pick is Ben Wilkerson, a four year starter, including the NC team, and played at a high level for all 4 years, he was also a smart player and quality person. And I absolutely love good linemen.
Don't be sad, he was jus nappin. We took that one a couple of weeks ago before the LSU/Tenn. softball game. My girls will not let me go to BR without passing by Mike for at least a lil visit. :thumb:
:lsup: is so talented is so many sports, it is impossible for me to name one favorite. I have so many people in mind in all of the sports. LSU! is LSU! , and I am proud to be a fan.
