Shaq is the unquestioned king in this category. So I guess we're trying to find 2nd place now.

Kris Perret is a lawyer

Brandon Landry started Walk-Ons which is expanding nationally. Went to Vegas on my honeymoon and saw Drew Brees advertising it even there. So they have to be doing well.

Pat Screen (LSU QB from 1963-65) was mayor of Baton Rouge in the late 1980's. Successful tenure

Nacho is a Dr.

Since y’all are social media generation, google Pete Maravich and see the number of clicks he still gets on all of those videos. I bet he is far and above every other former LSU athlete including Joe Burrow.

Then in the fantastic manner - Pete became a Fisher of Men. THAT WAS THE GREATEST THING HE EVER DID!

Yes. She did. LSU uniform made her “unique”, otherwise she is just another little college girl.

It depends on how you define success. I believe Dr. James Andrews is the correct answer. Shaq makes more money, but Dr. Andrews for many years was considered the best orthopedic surgeon in America. He repaired Drew Brees, Bo Jackson, Michael Jordan, Triple H, Jack Nicklaus, John Smoltz, Brett Favre, Lindsey Vonn, etc.

These are athletes who can pick/afford any surgeon in the world and they chose him.
