I have a degree from LSU and am in favor of a giant Maravich statue out in front of the PETE MARAVICH Assembly Center. Nope, the name on the building is not enough. The same guy that did the Shaq statue should do the Pistol statue. Start a petition and make it so.


So the LSU mentality is you can name a building after him, but you can't have a statue of him because he didn't graduate? That seems logical.

There is nothing that prevents a statue of The Pistol from being put up just because he did not graduate from LSU. That restriction applies to the LSU Hall of Fame & nothing else. Had ESPN existed back in Pete's days, he would have been a bigger icon than Shaq by far, and I love Shag for all that he represents about LSU.
