Garrett Temple ... was never heralded while at LSU. Never loved, often blamed ... is still playing.

If we're using the dictionary definition it's Ben Simmons.


I don't think that word meant what you think it meant. Simmons was rated #1 in high school and was the first pick in the draft.

Ethan Martin hands down. This guy could start on any college team still today. High IQ of Basketball. Never threw a turnover. I remember watching him in my college years at LSU. When a team would Full court press LSU. Ethan would run up get the ball and wave the rest of the LSU player off and go down court. He never needed any help breaking a press and was NEVER out of control.

Derrick Taylor from Redemptorist was a All American at LSU and a great point guard

He couldn't hold Ethan Martins jock strap

Garrett Temple. Everyone forgets about him, but he’s been in the NBA for about 13 yrs now. He’s getting to the end of his career, but I never would have thought he’d play this long.

Clarence Ceaser. That dude could get red hot at times.


He could, but the thing about Ceaser, as I remember him, he didn't care if he was hot or not (and he often wasn't), he was firing away regardless. He would get on streaks where he looked great, but other times he'd kill us.
