re: Opinion...is Mondo the greatest LSU athlete, ever?

Mondo is definitely up there. How high, that's uncertain. Wasn't Cannon a decathlete?

Anyone who says Shaq or Burrow is off the mark, they were gifted performers. Shaq's sole accomplishment is being so big and yet relatively coordinated, most guys his size can't even run. If Shaq was the athlete Chris Jackson was, he'd have been able to jump to where his sternum was at the rim on dunks.
Burrow is all skill, which is different again.

Mondo is certainly up there with Xavier Carter, and if he wins gold I say he passes him. Don't know where that puts him overall.
