It's tough to pick one. As far as a LSU player, who is also a personality, larger-than-life, and/or just reminds me of a place and time -
Y.A. Tittle, Jimmy Taylor and Billy Cannon (because they represent old school football in the finest tradition)
Bert Jones and Tommy Casanova, because they were the leaders of the first LSU football teams I watched.
Pistol Pete Maravich and Shaquille O'Neal because they are LSU basketball
Chris Williams, Dalton Hilliard, Sammy Martin, Eddie Kennison, Kevin Faulk, Booger McFarland, Bradie James, Joseph Addai, Jacob Hester, and Trindon Holliday, for various reasons. Football players get added to and taken away from this list all the time - but that's a snapshot of right now.
Warren Morris is the only baseball player that makes my list, for whatever reason.
If I have to pick one - Shaq.

Laron Landry
Hardest hitter. Intimidating.
He takes this spot for the safety blitz every year against Bama

The Pistol - Basketball
(The best of all in any sport)
Jacob Hester & Dalton Hilliard - Football
(What a backfield this would have been if they would have played together)
Chris Jackson & Shaq - Basketball
(Can not name one without the other because when they where together they where great will never forget the Loyolla Marymount & Houston games the greatest games I have ever watched in my intire life was at both.)
Brandon Larson - Baseball
(LSU won the NC in 1997 because of his 40 HR hitting frenzie that year, never seen anything like it before or after. waiting for it to happen again because of him and that team they hit 188 HR's that year which by the way is an NCAA record that still stands and I believe will never be broken. Also it was something to keep up with him and Lance Berkman whom Brandon beat out that year for the National HR hitting champion)
