He is, without a doubt, the greatest LSU basketball player I ever saw live with my own two eyes. And , with apologies to Shaq, who is an NBA Hall of Famer, and the greatest all time beloved ambassador of LSU,-it's not even close for me. Mahmoud was sublime, pure grace in tennis shoes. I could gush for days. I will meet anybody who disagrees at Sonic.

The greatest LSU basketball player I have ever seen play, at LSU and anywhere in college. Best pure shooter and dribbler without a doubt.

I'll never, ever forget him sinking the last FT versus UNLV and just putting his fist in the air while the Rebels ran down to make a meaningless basket. Baller.

Meaningless basket my @$$! That was the backdoor cover(+2.5).. Rebs were minus Augmon and Jeter that day. Between that bet, and correlated Niner bets and props(55-10 SB rout of Den in Dome).. 14 for 14 day to crush my LSU student bookie for 2 dimes. Things you don't forget.

pre-Burrow, the most amazing college athlete I have ever seen. Now it is: Burrow CJ Shaq in that order. Shaq was awesome and crazy impressive but CJ was just freaking magic. completely astounding.

White guy here. 43 year old version. I call him Chris Jackson because thats who he was at LSU. He absolutely deserves to have his jersey retired. Get over yourself and your religious and political views. They are retiring his LSU basketball jersey, not his religion. He was an LSU great. He's not a criminal and didn't murder anyone. Hey, while I'm at, I'd like to piss off a few more people. I like Ben Simmons too.

I remember when LSU played Georgetown in the Superdome. The Georgetown point guard did an interview where he said he was annoyed because he was an upperclassman on Georgetown but all anyone wanted to talk about was this freshman from LSU. He said that people would see who was better. And we did.
