Derrick Henry or Derrick Thomas in football, probably.

Robert Horry in basketball - an absurd 7 championship rings.

Possibly Lillie Leatherwood - 10 time All-American in track, 3 time NCAA champ, 8 time SEC champ, and Olympic gold medalist.

Horry was a good role player and carved out a nice NBA career, but I never thought of him as being a great athlete. Clutch spot up shooter in the playoffs.

J/K it’s Bo Jackson and it’s not close.

Honorable mention goes to Erk Russell who was the last 4 sport letterman at Auburn.

While these are fine choices...

My choice for OU is Tom Churchill....

All American Football, All American x 2 basketball, played in the major leagues and came in fifth in the Olympic decathlon. Late '20s and early '30s.

I’ve watched the run up the wall move 100s of times. It’s the most ho-hum freakishly athletic thing I’ve ever seen. How does he just know how to control his hips and posture for that like he does it failure?

He’s the goat.
