A few thoughts.
One major aspect that is often overlooked. LSUs jumping team and the lack of coach Boo.(next part is opinion) Boo respected Henry. I don't think he(Boo)walked away because he was over looked for the head coach position. I think it had to do a lot more with how he respected and was respected by Henry and how that was not the case with Shaver.(again this is opinion though I have heard some specific incidences) While I think Lane(new jump coach) has done well, Boo was at his peak and set the bar for jumps coaching.
Pat Henry has won 9 more national championships since going to Texas a&m, 5 men's and 4 women's.Most recently In 2017. Also worth noting he's had 19 other top 5 finishes. A&M was barely on the map prior to Henry.
Bertmans fault Henry is gone.
