Same for one of the NFL guys, but it's still an impressive accomplishment for the athletic program.

I believe the only school to do it once before tonight. Now twice (2 players in each of the big 3). Fantastic stat to own!

Never mind Seimone Augustus going first overall in 2006. So Baseball, Football, Men’s Basketball and Women’s Basketball.

nah I got nothing against Jamarcus. He gave everything he had at LSU unlike Ben Simmons who has been a total loser every stop along the way since he got to LSU

Pete went 3rd which was crazy to me considering. I get Lanier but Rudy T was another story.

Was a club sport for a while, I had a friend that played for the club team. Not sure if if that's still a thing anymore.

Lacrosse is growing. We should see if we can't get into the NCAA for that
