I remember hearing that Tepper was actually such a good strategist that he was almost TOO good--his players supposedly had difficulty being able to keep up with him and carry out his orders.
The players had to much analyzing and reading to do, instead of reacting. Tepper's system had the guys thinking WAY too much out there.

And poor Thomas Dunson...

Almost. It was the 96 Vandy game, and they wouldn't allow us to wear white, as they were still pissed at DiNardo for breaking his contract to come to LSU. We wore gold jerseys, and the crowd unlike now cooperated with a request to wear gold shirts, although it rained and the ponchos etc kind of messed up the visual.

Actually this is wrong, the crowd was requested to wear white shirts since the team could not wear white jerseys. Became known as "white out vandy night" LINK
