Why isn't Dr. James Andrews touted more as an LSU Alum.

The most famous orthopedic surgeon in the world who has performed surgery on, in part:
Carlos Beltran, C.C. Sabathia, Jamaal Charles,Jim Wall, Tom Brady,[7]Albert Pujols, Matt Harvey, Michael Jordan, Jack Nicklaus, Emmitt Smith, John Smoltz, Troy Aikman, Ivan Nova, Josh Johnson, Charles Barkley, Roger Clemens, Drew Brees,[8] Reggie Bush, Andrei Markov, Bo Jackson, Adrian Peterson, Hope Solo, Marcus Lattimore, Robert Griffin III, Brett Favre, Ryan Broyles, Rajon Rondo, Mark Sanchez, Michael Morse, Jonny Venters, Nerlens Noel, Rickie Weeks, Sam Bradford, Braxton Miller, Dave Batista, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, John Cena, Edge, Randy Orton, CM Punk, Matt Moore, Lindsey Vonn,[9] Brian Cushing, Navorro Bowman, Kiko Alonso, James 'Jimmy Greek' Theofilos and Rob Gronkowski.[10]
I mean "Better than Ezra" Rock, but come on, no room in an LSU spot for this guy? What gives?

Because he's been claimed by Alabama.

Come on Snakebucket...
his renown is state-dependent. Definitely not a household name.

Jesus, they've bought him too? frick it, He's ours. Everything he learned, he learned at LSU. All those ACL's, MCL's and other CL's he's repaired were repaired by TIGER HANDS. This should not be glossed over when touting academic achievement.

I hope you're not serious.
This guy is the ALI, The JORDAN, The BABE RUTH of sports surgeons.
If you've not heard of him you can't be a dedicated sports fan.

Sorry, but L=C is telling the truth. And once Bama claims something, it becomes their's.
Posted on 2/22/15 at 7:06 pm to BayouBengals18
frick Bama, He got his degree from LSU. He can't hide from it, nor can the gumps steal it. All those athletes owe a debt of gratitude to the institute of higher learning that is LSU.
Posted on 2/22/15 at 7:07 pm to Snakebucket
The athletes he's treated?
Posted on 2/22/15 at 7:11 pm to Snakebucket
His son went to LSU, so it isn't like he is anti-LSU. I think I read his daughter went to Ole Miss though

He's not an LSU fan for whatever reason it seems. He has season tickets to Auburn and Alabama.
Good write up about him in ESPN The Magazine about a year ago and it seemed like his time at LSU was a blip to him.

He's definitely known. He's the go to surgeon for athletes and even celebrities and the insanely wealthy. It seems every day he's written about in some article about an athletes surgery. Guy seems to work his arse off.

He's claimed more by Auburn isn't he? Isn't his office there and he's their team doc or some shite?

You forgot to mention my name in this thread. Just cause I didn't make the big leagues you left me off.
But seriously he is the most down to earth guy ever and treated me like I feel like he would treat Drew Brees.

I heard he went to med school in Bama...

LSU undergrad, Pretty sure LSU med school (if not Tulane), Tulane residency.

When he did my surgery he talked about LSU a good bit and about his time there.
If I remember correctly he said he was an all sec pole vaulter.
