That's the thing. It's hard for me to think of him as a former LSU player. Just a guy passing through. I don't wish him any ill, but he doesn't embody LSU to me.


What? He has given more to lsu basketball than 99% of the people on the planet. Youre saying he doesnt embody lsu because he was good enough to get drafted #1 overall so early?

So 60 million people have given more?

The poster is saying Ben doesn't embody LSU because he had to go somewhere and the ONLY reason he came here was because hs godfather was on staff. Without David Patrick, Ben doesn't give LSU one second of consideration.

So did every member of the team for the last 50 years. So did the guys who clean the court after the game.

Uh, nope. I'm saying he came to LSU because of a one time personal connection. He'll make very little difference to future recruits.
