    Bradshaw, Malone, P. Manning , Maravich

    I'd probably go with Bill Russell or Shaq too. Eddie Robinson will definately be in, but he doesn't get my vote over any of the others I've mentioned.

    LSU HOMERS..

    Bad...

    Why so many pick Shaq over Malone?

    Malone was the better player. I guess titles?

    Oh wait no Shaq went to LSU

    I didn't know Lou Brock went to Southern. I wouldn't vote for him in this deal but he was a hell of a baseball player. Very under-rated.

    Yeah we need to stuff the ballots to get our guys in there.

    Bradshaw, Malone, Russell and Maravich -

    Where is John David Crowe on the list - Cannon is NOT the only Heisman winner from the state!

    I gotta go with Coach Rob, Russell, Maravich and then Bradshaw...with a shout out to Coach Barmore.

    These guys either won more championships, games or changed the face of there sport. As much as I want to vote for Malone, he didn't do any of that.

    What are you talking about? Malone is responsible for the modern day power forward position. I think it was skilldawg who pointed out that Tech has several players who changed their positions-Bradshaw, Malone, Dean, and I can't remember who else.

    Re: Louisiana - ESPN.com

    It's not that Malone had less talent around him or Jordan had more talent around him as to why Malone didn't get a ring. Malone didn't get a ring because of Jordan. And he joins a long list of stars in that regard. Barkley, Stockton, Ewing, ect.... AND I think if Jordan doesn't go to play baseball you would add Olajouwan(sp?) to that list.

    There is no shame in that. I think DD is right that very good even great players shouldn't lose their luster because of no ring. Heck Trent Dilfer has a ring and Dan Marino doesn't. NO ONE would choose Dilfer over Marino.

    I must be missing something with all these Skip Bertman homers voting. I mean he was a great coach but Mount Rushmore of Louisiana? Come on.

    Can someone tell me how a guy like Eli Manning makes the list on both Louisiana and Mississippi but Fred Dean, Willie Roaf, and Doug Williams don't make a list?

    It's the "What have you done for me lately?" thing.

    Eli should not be on the list. Not good enough. Payton, while I think he is a ****head, should be on the list. He grew up in Louisiana, until he moved on to college and the pros.

    Which makes me think that Pistol Pete should not be on the list. Didn't he grow up in South Carolina? And, didn't move to Louisiana until college? Same for Bill Russell, in that he moved away from Louisiana at age 10. I don't think that either should qualify.

    Malone, Robinson, P. Manning and Roch Hontas.
