Figure 3 National Championships and an 11 X All-American would be considered. But, at least the one guy disagrees from the dv up above I guess. Maybe young? Maybe doesn’t consider track a sport?

I don’t know if she’d make the final list; we’ve had some incredible individual athletes. But she’d be at the top my candidate list to start.

For example, you realize that the Honey Badger on Billy Cannon's 1959 team would make Billy Cannon look average from an athletic stand point, right?

---

Cannon was bigger (6’1”, 207 to 5’9”, 185), probably stronger and most likely faster. He ran a 9.4 100 yard dash, which converts to a 10.28 100m. That was less than .2 off of the world record at the time.

Cannon was an athlete that could have competed in any era.

Billy Cannon ran a 9.4.

And was a shot put champion.

Stfu you moron

To clarify, I don’t think he’s one of the top 10 athletes to ever attend LSU. I was pointing out that he’s a great athlete, not just a great QB.

Cannon won the SEC championship at 100 meters and in the shot put.

Cannon never won the shot put. Please peruse the t&f media guide before making specious claims.

Billy Cannon was bigger, faster and stronger than Mathieu by a lot as far as size. His hands would crush yours during a handshake. Ran in the low 10 100 meters sub 9 100 yard dash. Played TE in the pro’s FWIW and was very good. The prisoners called him legend for a reason and never screwed with him. He was a BAD dude.
Tommy Casanova was bigger than the entire secondary not too long ago (Saw a pic taken long ago with the secondary that included Adams - he dwarfed them).
