LSU All Stars in the 2010s- Ben Simmons (2019)

UNC All Stars in the 2010s- None

In other words going to play basketball for UNC is a career killer for most.

Does Simmons count though? The rant doesn't claim him.

Weird flex considering Ben Simmons has been pretty open about not giving a frick about LSU

He wore an LSU jersey for a season. Also beat Kentucky in that time span. He counts.

Yes 40 years ago Michael Jordan played for UNC. And 30 years ago Shaquille ONeal played for LSU. So there are NBA legends on both sides.

I went down an internet rabbit hole yesterday. I learned that Texas is 7-1 vs UNC over the last 15 years

UNC has more national championships last decade than LSU also.

Enjoy it, UNC sucks this year. 1 year.... until last year, LSU has sucked in basketball with exception for a season here and there.

I guarantee you it wouldn't have been posted had Carolina not sucked monkey nuts so far this year.
