You are right. Mondo is without a doubt the Goat. Holds the top 14 vaults in the men's pole vault.

Shaq and it's not even close.

His accomplishment off the court makes him even more accomplished!

Combining college and professional play and achievements, along with his career after retirement, you have to go with Shaq. He is a household name, even among people who do not follow basketball. The guy is literally a cultural icon.

The typical low-IQ reply from folks regarding Mondo, though going off your spelling of “traitor”…

Shaq, but Skenes is poised to pass him IF he can get a WS ring or two. He just needs to bide his time until the Yankees or Dodgers come calling with the payday.
