For UGA a few years back it likely would have been Goldberg. But wrestling isn't as big as it once was.
Wayne Knight might fit (Neuman from Seinfeld).
Perhaps Ryan Seacrest.
Michael Stipe from REM.
Kim Bassinger.
Maria Taylor.
Alton Brown from the food network.
As much as I don't really like it... it's probably Ryan Seacrest. He's kind of turning into this generation's Dick Clark.

In no particular order, take your pick:
Walter Cronkite
Matthew McConaughey
Farrah Fawcett
Janis Joplin
Renee Zellwegger
Jon Hamm
Kevin Durant
Owen Wilson
Neil Degrasse Tyson
Jane Mansfield
Roger Clemons
That's off the top of my head, feels like I'm missing quite a few.

... and probably Darius Rucker for our Gamecocks. Or Ainsley Earhart. I dunno, there's quite a few to choose from.

In almost every case, the school that gets to claim you is the one you got your bachelors from, which eliminates Jon Hamm (Missouri), Owen Wilson (didn't graduate), Neil DeGrasse Tyson (Harvard), Janis Joplin (didn't graduate), and Walter Cronkite (didn't graduate - Arizona State has a greater claim to him because he is the namesake of their school of Journalism)
That would be like A&M claiming Jennifer Garner because her father Jack was a Former Student.
I'll let you claim Elizabeth Warren though because she got her law degree there.

Jon Hamm is cool. Didn’t know that. Outside of him and Owen Wilson, the rest can jump off the ledge at the oasis. They’re either on drugs, sell drugs, died of drugs or jabbed drugs and will miss the HOF.
