I never saw Todd Walker play at LSU

I was only a baby. I know most say he is the best LSU has ever produced. But how much better was he than crews? Crews is the best i have ever seen, even with the dead bats.
ETA: Met the guy in person multiple times. Really nice guy.

Crews is the best non-pitching baseball prospect that LSU has ever had.
It's a joke that he has to go back to college for another year.

Todd was like butter. He was a great hitter, fielder and honored the jersey off the field. When a ball was hit to him, he made the correct play, every time.

Walker had the sweetest swing I can remember ever seeing at LSU. His homers were majestic.

Walker put up numbers all season and in big post season situations. Crews is on that level talent wise.

You missed a great player!! Was very fortunate to see him play many times!!

I saw Walker play. He was a great player and led us to a National championship. If you want to put Crews right up there with him you will get no argument from me.

Crews is probably the best all around talent but Walker’s numbers are ridiculous.
That clown a couple weeks ago said Crews doesn’t even deserve to be mentioned with Aaron Hill

5-tool player.
Smoothest swing ever. Only one close was Furness.

He was my favorite player growing up. I remember going to the 93 Regional. It just seemed like he squared up everything.

I remember Walker and CO batting around TWICE on GA tech in regionals. Scored 17 runs in the bottom of that inning. The GA tech skipper got so pissed he walked out to the mound after about tge 4th pitching change and started kicking the mound with reckless abandon.

I was a young teen when Todd Walker played for LSU and we split season tickets with a family member. Watching LSU baseball in the nineties at the Box was awesome but especially if you were a young kid who loved playing baseball.
I mean the guy hit with an avg. over .400 as a Freshman. By the time he left LSU he was the SEC All Time Leader in Hits, Runs Scored and I think RBI’s too.

Blake Dean and Matt Clarke are the best I’ve ever seen. Different era than the BBCOR era, but they’re the closest I’ve ever seen to the greats who played under Skip.

Hard to argue with these numbers,
quote:also hit 52 home runs. He didn't play in the gorilla ball era, the bats might have been a little better but they weren't the same ones that LSU used to hit 188 homeruns in 97'.
Walker, a two-time First Team All-American who hit .396 in college, left Baton Rouge after three seasons as the SEC's all-time leader in hits (310), runs (234), RBI (246) and total bases (557).

Walker is #1 in my book.

Lucky enough to see him play in Alex Box and Fenway Park. Great Player.

You're comparing all-time great talents 25+ years apart so no criticism intended.
Walker was better for avg period and more pop than one might expect but no way does he have Crews power.
Walker had a very fluid but big swing that caught up to him in MLB. Crews' is more compact and will transition better to MLB.
Comparable speed but we don't run as much with JJ. I think Crews is better fielding but they play different positions.

Both great players but crews is a better hit for power guy I’d say.. imagine crews with an aluminum bat!
