We've gotten a lot of loaded pick one over another or ranking on TD recently.

I couldn't disagree with most lists likely.

I will say that Alan Risher was one of my favorite QBs. I still hate Nebraska to this day.

I agree with most of these and I see why you put some names so far down the list. Stock in 4 year players over 1-2 year guys but Skenes has to be a little higher. He broke records here and helped win that ship. Not his fault he wasn’t at LSU earlier. Then you have Burrow way higher. Which I agree with but then you’d have to put Skenes a little higher at least. That’s my major differences. But good list.

I work all hours so yes I’m up, unfortunately.

Some omissions that need to be considered:
Tommy Hobson was the SEC all-time leader in passing when he graduated.
Ricky Blanton in basketball, although your top 5 is spot on. You can put CJ, Shaq and Pettit in any order, personally I’d put CJ 2 but I’m okay with the starting 5.
Baseball has so many great players that you’ve have and haven’t listed. Some others to consider, Lyle Mouton, Chad Ogea, Mike Sirotka, and ryan theriot are just a few. People also forget how great Warren Morris was before he got injured. All they think about is his Hr, in the final game, being the first one of the season.

Pretty good lists. In my opinion Kyle Williams, Alan Faneca, and Kevin Mawae should also probably be mentioned as potential top 10 at least.

Great effort. To me the biggest Omission is Stromile Swift for Basketball. SEC POTY, #2 Overall Pick, 10 Year NBA Career.

Tigeifer’s list is a pretty, darn good list. I clicked on it expecting to see a lot to disagree with, and of course there are a couple of spots I could try to debate, but all in all I think this is a very good effort.

Well done, sir.

The same could also be said about Brandon Larson. He hit 40 home runs and drove in 118 runs! As for a signature moment, how about game 1 in the CWS facing a 2 run deficit against the MLB #1 draft pick closer… home run over the left field bleachers to tie the game and help lead LSU to another national title and the CWS MVP.

There is a good debate for best one year player at LSU between Larson and Skenes, although I think Skenes edges him out.

That list is absolutely garbage. I'm guessing you are around 20 years old.

Brian Thomas Jr and Trindon on the football list?

Your entire basketball list is so trash, there is no point in pointing it out.

Baseball one is terrible as well.

I don’t think there is any chance you are over the age of 20-21
