Best player to grace LSU since Shaq! And that's debatable!

No, absolutely not. Had he won the Wooden and taken LSU to the final four I would still say no. As it is, definitely no.

Not that I'm the authority on retiring jerseys, but I would imagine a school would only want to retire jerseys for individuals who treated their school better than simply a springboard for their pro career.

A couple of "I love LSU" tweets won't make up for the fact that he wasn't even on campus for a full academic year.

Maybe if he donates a shite ton of money back to LSU.

Yes, shaq went back and earned his degree. I remember his speech saying LSU should stand for "Love Shaq University!"

Well if Dale and Collis say do it I'm sure we will. I mean they played a huge part in hiring a .565 coach from mighty North Texas.
