Then I guess he'll get a low seed, won't he?

I hate how people name dudes that barely do anything post lsu, but wont name a hall of fame center.
Posted on 6/22/12 at 8:41 pm to dgnx6
Mawae is an incredible Tiger and an outstanding professional, but I wonder how he'll stack up against a classic all-around athlete like Tommy Casanova.
seeding will be a tough process.

Wow! Kevin Faulk has to be up there
Kevin Troy Faulk (born June 5, 1976 in Carencro, Louisiana) is an American football running back for the New England Patriots of the National Football League. He was drafted by the Patriots in the second round of the 1999 NFL Draft. He played college football at LSU.
As of 2010, Faulk is the longest-tenured current member of the Patriots, having played eleven seasons with the team. He is a distant relative[1] of former NFL running back Marshall Faulk.[
Faulk attended Carencro High School in Carencro, Louisiana, where he helped his team win the 1992 State Championship (Class 5A). In high school, Faulk rushed for 4,877 yards on 603 carries (8.1 yards per carry). He also had 7,612 all-purpose yards and 89 touchdowns. He was twice chosen as Louisiana's Most Valuable Player (Class 5A). He was also given All-American Honors by USA Today and Parade.
Following high school, Faulk attended Louisiana State University, where he immediately became the starting running back for LSU's football team as a true freshman in 1995. In 1996, Faulk was voted to the College Football All-America Team by the Associated Press. Faulk ran for 1,144 yards on 205 carries in 1997, scoring 15 touchdowns. He improved on those numbers as a senior in 1998 when he ran for 1,279 yards on 229 carries and scored 12 rushing touchdowns. He added 287 yards receiving and three receiving touchdowns.
Faulk finished his LSU career with 4,557 yards rushing in 41 games, which was second best in SEC history behind the legendary Herschel Walker of Georgia (5,259 yards in 34 games). Faulk also finished his career with 6,833 career all-purpose yards and 53 total touchdowns, which tied him for fifth in NCAA history and first in SEC history. His SEC record was surpassed on November 21, 2009 by Tim Tebow of Florida.
Faulk holds the following school records at LSU:
[edit] LSU career all-purpose records
• Most career all-purpose yards (6,833)
[edit] LSU career scoring records
• 2nd most points scored in a career (318 points)

Why? The question was the greatest LSU Tiger ever, not the best pro post-LSU. Once a player makes the pros, his contributions to LSU on the field/court/diamond, etc are over. Further, the question posed looks at the athlete at his stage of development while at LSU, not after. Pistol Pete Maravich. Anyone who names anyone else never saw him play, and that's not to be rude, dude, but to simply state a fact. 44 a game...with 3 point line, the best estimate I've seen is 54.6 game...FOR THREE YEARS!!!!!

Walker in baseball. Jackson in basketball, and Reed in football.
