I was looking at 92, but I would have listed Eric Curry (or Antonio Langham) and Robert Horry.

If we go with 92, I would have Horry also.
But for football I would go with the Deuce

Without knowing anything about our baseball or basketball history, I'd say Murray, Caldwell pope and Alex wood is a good trio

Or Herschel, Dominique Wilkins, and some random baseball guy

The commercial says they forever transformed AU. What was AU before they transformed it and what did they transform it into?

I was gonna say 2009. Marcus Thornton in basketball, Patrick Peterson in football, and maybe Jared Mitchell.
why Jared Mitchell? He was drafted high, but was like the 6th best player on that championship team. Plus he is still in the minors... DJ LeMahieu, Anthony Ranaudo, and Louis Coleman were all better and have all started multiple games in the big leagues.

I'm sure there are some others, especially going further back, but it will be hard to find many good basketball players lol



2008?

Football:Choose between Von Miller/ Martellus Bennett/ Ryan Tannehill

Basketball: Deandre Jordan(2007-2008)/ Donald Sloan

2008 Baseball: Michael Wacha

I'd go completely in a different direction; after all, we're talking about college success, not professional success.

1995 saw Madre Hill lead us to the SEC-CG and a Western division title with about 1400 yards rushing; it also saw the Hogs return to the National Title game behind the efforts of Corliss Williamson; the baseball team made the tournament, behind the efforts of freshman All-American Matt Erickson, and the strong junior season of Kendrick Moore, who would go on to be named an All-American the next year.
