I think you guys need to knock the cobwebs off. Dale wasn't that great of a coach. His only success came with overachieving teams.

Dale was absolutely a great coach. The current state of LSU's program has nothing to do with the probation.

Dale Brown was always a thorn in the NCAAs side. They were after him and LSU's program. A witch hunt was led by the NCAA and they used Lester Earl.

You are entitled to your opinion, as am I. Fact is, we have not had basketball like the Dale Brown era since then. It was rocking and fun!!! We were respected.

He had consistant success and we were always in the mix in the SEC from '77 until that lying douche LE came to campus.

He's the second all-time winningest coach in SEC hoops history. Behind only Adolph Rupp. But, yeah, he wasn't so hot.

Having a team or player overachieve is the fricking definition of a great coach, asswipe.

How do some of you even consider yourself sports fans?

SO with your moronic theory, who gets the credit when a player gets better than he was expected to be?

Isn't that the definition of a good coach?
