The reigning NCAA champions LSU Tigers made quite the impact both on and off the court this year. With a team full of potential superstars, Big Diesel‘s alma mater is the favorite for the upcoming tournament. However, it looks like they might be the favorite for the next few seasons if Me’arah O’Neal joins their team.
Me’arah and her father, Shaquille O’Neal made a surprise visit to the LSU Tigers a few months back in February. Sharing some pictures of her in the LSU thread, the fans anticipated Me’arah will be joining the LSU. However, in the meantime, the 17-year-old has already racked up the offers.
Top colleges like Baylor University, Arizona State, Tennessee State, and more are in the race for Me’arah’s signature. Big Diesel‘s daughter flexed the offers she received from eight universities on her Instagram. Nonetheless, that was not the highlight.
LSU champion Angel Reese commented, “You know!”, hinting where Me’arah might go. Notably, Shaq has supported the 21-year-old Reese on several occasions. During an interview, she even called the LSU alum her “uncle.”

Shaq revealed in his podcast, Me’arah picked up basketball by watching WNBA superstar Candace Parker. Playing a similar role for her school, Me’arah used to be a “prissy” hooper until Shaq decided to turn things around.
Shaq revealed he inspired his daughter to be mean so that she can get the ‘dog mentality’ that the Lakers champion is famous for. Already with a 6’4 height and a compelling physique, Me’arah has ticked all the boxes by following her dad’s path.
