Both were #1 recruits in the country. Both went to LSU at the same time. Twenty years from now will LSU fans tell stories about having these two future pro stars on campus at the same time, despite Simmons never playing a postseason game and Fournette being on a bunch of 8 win teams?

Fournette, sure. One of the best running backs in SEC history.
Simmons? Nah.
Simmons? Nah.

I hate to say LSU wastes talent, but...

their GOAT players couldn't overcome their coaching

You mean like cotton bowl Manziel?

It's not black or white for me. Awesome players wasted by shitty coaches. Exciting and infuriating.
I will remember Simmons less fondly than LF7 because he was only here for one year. Nothing against him because that's the nature of his sport.

It'll be like when DiNardo had Cecil Collins, Kevin Faulk, and that other great tailback on the same team but they sucked. Those guys were fun to watch. They'll remember the players with a fondness but not the overall record.

Well how about you help us get some perspective. How do you remember any of your former favorite players (seeing as how they never accomplished anything significant while in college)?
