Stats don't lie. The best player ever to set foot on hard wood floors in college basketball.

1. Shaq
2. Pistol
3. Y.A. Tittle
4. Bob Pettit
5. Steve Van Buren


David Toms and James Andrews are also good suggestions.

I believe his name is Charles Walker. He played on the OL in the 60's at LSU. He is now retired from Ole Miss as a teacher and lives in Oxford. My brother was with his son at MD Anderson in Houston in an elevator and my nephew had an LSU shirt on. Mr. Walker, who was also in the elevator, struck up a conversation with my nephew and told him who he was. Seems Mr. Walker was there for test as he too was battling Cancer. He demanded that my brother keep him informed of my nephews progress. When they arrived home some 6 weeks later, waiting for them was an LSU helmet sign by many former Tigers greats and an LSU flag. It was from Mr. Walker. My brother stayed in touch with him during my nephews treatment. Mr. Walker informed my brother that if his family needed anything and he ment anything including money to not hesitate to call him. My nephew passed about a year ago and the hardest phone call he made was to Mr. Walker. THAT, MY FRIENDS, IS AN ALUMNI TO BE PROUD OF.......

I think Tommy Casanova should be included in any list of the greatest LSU sports alumni. The only LSU 3 time All-American.

Shaq is probably the single most dominant player to ever play any single sport. I can't think of anyone who even comes close.
