No love given for Nick Fitzgerald? Guy left it all out there, demolished my two most hated teams, ole miss and tamu, multiple times each (with no mercy). Was the first QB to beat LSU at home in a generation. He had ole miss literally break his leg and he came back and hung two rushing TDs on them in a 35-3 beatdown the next year. Had they not broken his leg in 2017, we'd be talking about how he was the first MSU QB to dunk on ole miss so hard 3 years in a row.
You gotta go Fitz. Say what you will about his passing ability and struggles in the JoMo "offense" (emphasis on the " " because it was so bad), he was made of steel and loved him some MSU / dunking on ole miss.
Honorable mentions to Jake Mangum, Will Clark, and my guy Winsome Frazier who was just so much fun.
I know we're only supposed to pick one but I go back and forth between our own Bulldog Bruce and Johnie Cooks. Guess it's because I was at State when they were and got to see them play numerous times in person.
Football: Chris Relf. Dude did more with less and really laid foundation for change of our program. dude was a beast running the option. Plus he beat ole miss three years in a row. Now many dogs did that.
basketball: have to be Dampier. Final four and was a beast under the goal
baseball: that's tough because of the stronger history. What Bednar did in m CWS is insane. Mangum is hits king and was a strong leader that held that the program up. Clark and Palmero were a part of the group that started the legacy. Refroe and holder were dudes in 13. Moreland will always probably be mine though. Was a bright spot for the program in a low spot. He had a long pro career too. Good dude too.

Johnnie Cooks would be my favorite. Always treated everyone nice and funny as hell even though he didn't speak English back in the day. It was a special Cooks language.
Great question. Been thinking all day about it. As a kid, Sleepy Robinson, Daryl Wilson, and Eric DuBose come to mind. As a college student, it was definitely Fred Smoot. Almost the perfect embodiment of late 90’s Jackie Sherrill Bulldog Football. As a graduate, it’s Dak and Jake. Overall, there were two on this list that drew tears from me, so that’s where my mind goes. I shed a couple when Dak fell short in Tuscaloosa in 2014. I was pretty sure that was our year for an SEC Football Championship. And I shed more than a couple after Jake fell short in Omaha in 2019. I was SO sure that was our year after the Auburn comeback that I already had bought tickets for the Finals. That hurt for days. Little did I know in those days in 2019 that the ground he laid would lead us there in 2021. So for me….it’s definitely Jake Mangum.
He said he wanted to start a discussion and then got pissed that we were discussing it. I cannot name just one because I have old-school and new-school players from various sports to discuss. If you can only have one, I'll say Jack Cristil.
