Shaquille Rashaun O’Neal (born March 6, 1972), frequently referred to simply as “Shaq”, is an American professional basketball player, rapper, and actor. He is widely perceived as one of the most dominant players in the history of the NBA[1][2] and one of the most quotable athletes of all time.[citation needed] Currently, he plays at center for the Cleveland Cavaliers. O’Neal has won four NBA Championships, three with the Los Angeles Lakers and one most recently in 2006, with the Miami Heat.

O’Neal first gained national attention as a star at Linton Middle School. He led his Robert G. Cole High School team, San Antonio, Texas, to a 68–1 record during his two years there and helped the team win the state title his senior year.[3] His 791 rebounds during the 1989 season remain a state record for any one player in any classification.[4]

After graduating from high school, O’Neal attended Louisiana State University, where he was a member of Omega Psi Phi and studied business. He had first met Dale Brown, LSU’s men’s basketball coach at that time, years before in Europe. With O’Neal’s stepfather stationed on a U.S. Army base at Wildflecken, West Germany, and his godfather a First Sergeant at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, O’Neal attended Fulda American High School, a DODDS school.

While playing for Brown at LSU, O’Neal was a two-time All-American, two-time SEC player of the year, and received the Adolph Rupp Trophy as NCAA men’s basketball player of the year in 1991. He also holds the NCAA record for blocked shots in a game with 17 blocks against Mississippi State on December 3, 1990.

O’Neal left LSU early to pursue his NBA career, but returned to school in 2000 and received a Bachelor of Arts in General Studies.[5] He was later inducted into the LSU Hall of Fame.[6]
