The best Tiger athlete was probably some women's gymnast. Gymnastics requires such strength and body control that gymnasts have to be the best atheletes.
An "ATHLETE" means that person could play anything! PERIOD! A womans gymnast is amazing at HER sport! :geauxtige NOT ANYTHING else. Have you ever seen a gymnast run? I have and they CANT! If you wanna talk about a female athlete please talk about augustus or fowles. Common guys, with such names as SHAQ, Billy Cannon, Albert Belle!
Just for info - Jim Taylor - LSU Class of 1958, Pro Football HOF Class of 1976 Y.A. Tittle - LSU Class of 1948 (+/-), Pro Football HOF Class of 1971 Steve Van Buren - LSU Class of 1944 (+/-), Pro Football HOF Class of 1965 Wanted to make sure that we don't forget our history and make assumptions like Xavier Carter is the best Tiger Athelete of all time.
pistol pete number 1 by far if your talking about best player. now athlete not sure on that. But you gotta love 'NOVA baby.
When I read best athlete I don't see best football player. The best pure athletes are probably not in any of the major sports.
Do we have a croquet team, maybe they have the best athlete, you have no idea what ur talkin about supafan!
Tommy Casanova, Billy Cannon, or the Pistol were probably among the most athletic in the big sports. I still contend that the best pure athletes are either the gymnasts, or maybe the decathalon people from track.
