I think the better discussion is how they rank all time nationally as a sibling duo. There is no contest as far as LSU rank.

Yeah. I asked my wife at the game last night I wonder if any 2 brothers have ever had 2 athletic accomplishments better within 1 month.

NCAA Pole Vault Record
LSU Career Hits Record

That's pretty hard to top. I would like to see nominations for 2 brothers with 2 better athletic achievements in a 1 month span.

One of the top baseball players to come through arguably the best program in the country and a wold class, record setting pole vaulter who will be an Olympian...

Yeah, that'll be hard to beat.

Not even close.


I’m sure there were more than we can remember, but to name a few in recent years:

Jordan twins
Jefferson brothers
Josh and Abraham Booty

I still don’t think it’s close.

Kevin and Craig Steltz. National champions in 2003 and 2007 ! Craig was first team all American and a finalist for the Jim Thorpe award. Kevin owns the bench press record at LSU with 635.
