    Once saw Bo Jackson park one in the married students housing. Probably the most amazing shot I've ever seen.

    That's the one I remember most. We won the regional, but we could not get that dude out.

    That entire 1990 USC was studs. Jacques Jones, I think played on that team plus a slew of others.

    Jason Vertiek at GT, Frank Thomas at Auburn, Liliburn from UGa along with Chris Carpenter. MSU had Clark, Rafael, the clown, Jeff Brantley, who closed for the White Sox. David (?) King, 3B with the Pirates, from Arkansas. UNO pulled a couple of names through when they were the college program in Louisiana (can anyone believe they once they lead the series 23-4!).

    The greatest show I ever saw was by Steve Lombardozi (Twins) as a Gator. He nailed a slugging percentage once early 1980's SEC tournament over 1.00.

    The 1989 Aggie team was probably the most talented to play LSU outside of Omaha (which makes the wins over them sweeter).
