Your school's best players in the big 3 at the same time?

I saw a commercial for Bo, Barkley and Big Hurt, and although all 3 of those guys weren't playing at Auburn at the same time (I think Frank Thomas was a year or two after Bo and Charles) it made me wonder what were the best players at each of the big 3 sports for each SEC school that played at the same time. For Carolina it's pretty tough, but I'd say Marcus Lattimore, Devan Downey and Michael Roth. Who's yours?

The corndogs and the gators both probably have some like that, the AU group was special. Thomas came in one year after Bo left. I vividly remember him as a TE on the football team.

Wow ... three good ones. Never thought about that before but you're right.
Lattie helped us get to Atlanta for the first time.
Devan shared an East title with Tennessee.
Roth won a couple of CWS titles.
But the best is yet to come.

I believe Joe Johnson and Matt Jones played briefly at the same time (2001).
Not sure if anyone elite in baseball would've been playing then.

Not that Roth wasn't special for us and the CWS I'd might consider putting Jackie Bradley Jr. in there.
Lattimore, Downey, Bradley Jr. Those are some real athletes.

best I can think of recently would be 2005?
Football - Martellus Bennett
Baseball - Cliff Pennington
Basketball - Acie Law IV
I'm sure there are some others, especially going further back, but it will be hard to find many good basketball players lol

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'd have to go with 92- Shaq, Kevin Mawae and Todd Walker; Two pro and three college HoFer's, National PoY, CWS MVP, All-Americans.
