No LSU athlete except for maybe Pete Maravich is on Joe Burrow’s level.

ETA

It depends on if we're talking about just what they accomplished at LSU (which is what I was thinking) or if we're including post LSU careers too. If post LSU careers are included, then absolutely Shaq should be included.

No.

Simmons was a fine player at LSU.. but accomplished nothing really.

Burrow on the other hand won literally everything possible. Likely would be on LSU Mount Rushmore.

So its a resounding 'No'

You definitely framed this for only a certain response. Just because he didn’t accomplish much at LSU doesn’t mean his name isn’t recognized by most sports fans with even a modicum of interest in sports.

Did he lead the team to the best season in history and win a natty? There's your answer.

Not at all.

But he is an NBA All-Star and was the 1st overall pick relatively recently.

If Ben Simmons has to be as well known as Joe Burrow is for you to know who he is you’re no true LSU fan.

Where did someone say that in the thread?

I scanned and didn't see it posted.
