Shaq exponentially more recognizable though

Simmons had a bitter chip on his shoulder at the notion of HAVING to play college BB and made it transparent the entire time he was here.

Shaq embraced it in every way and it played a huge part in his marketability down the line. Being still revered at the school is just gravy.

The lesson should be, be Shaq not Ben.
