This is no contest - Pete all the way. Pete's
44+ pts per game avg for his career will never be touched. Would have been 48+ with a three pt. line. He was "the show" at every arena - home or away - and he loved being the show.

Kevin Faulk....It had been a long time since LSU was relevant in our passion (football). The Travis Minors and Warrick Dunns of the world left the state. Kevin chose to stay home. He began the building of something better. We didn't have the right coach yet, but his attitude is what LSU fans should love to see. People talk about Hesters heart. Kevin was the original (no disprespect to Hester)..

Faulk'em!

No, but really. It's probably a tie between Kevin Faulk and Todd Walker. Both were involved in some of my earliest memories of LSU sports and both were all-time greats.

Baseball - Todd Walker (everyone on the team wanted to be #12 when I was playing little league)

Basketball - Ronald Dupree (I grew up around LSU players, but Ronald definitely took the cake when I met him. He was a blast to watch as well as a true student athlete. He was truly the best study partner I had in my entire time at LSU.)

Football - Michael Clayton (all-time great WR at LSU, but also one of the most vicious hitters to ever wear the P&G. I remember him getting a personal foul in TS on a perfectly legal hit because it just seemed to explosive to be legal.) *Peter Dyakowski is a close second.*

Ladies B-ball: Seimone Augustus (Tiny ego for such a huge talent.)

Soccer: Liz Marshall was my girl.

That's as far as I'll go. I have to admit. I don't watch much of the minor sports.
