    Tiger Rag recently came out with what it considers to be the top 5 LSU athletes for 2006-2007. They are:

    1) Jarmarcus Russell - Football
    2) Sylvia Fowles - Women's Basketball
    3) LaRon Landry - Football
    4) Glen Davis - Men's Basketball
    5) Megan Falcon - Women's Tennis

    I am interested in any comments. Personally, I would have replaced Falcon with Bowe, and I might have put Davis at #3.

    So would friedriches. :hihi:

    I don't get the point in forcing limited choices. If there's enough talent and clearly that's the case, make it a top 10!

    The ONLY list in question is the top 5, so the "Total" list is only 5- and Addai was with the Colts in 06-07..........you really should watch an LSU game now and then. :hihi:


    As for the thread, Russell, Landry, and Fowles are no-brainers to me. It would be easy for me to stick Emily (No pun) where either Falcon or Davis are but, I would kick Davis down and keep ET 4th and MF 5th. Not popular, I'm sure but not close IMO.

    Oh, LVT......Fowles was on our basketball team. :grin:
