This would help very much to keep us in contention year after year. Liked his attitude. His quote before Nick Saban was hired at LSU, "When you want a big fish, you fish in deep water."

One of the very few LSU admins that was worth anything.

Pretty much the only one. Getting Bertman as a baseball coach was just luck and cheap.

The GOAT. He walked onto the field pregame and the student section would cheer him.

He was the man and was an integral part of why LSU became dominant in the 2000's.

People freaked when Saban wanted top dollar. He looked everyone in the eye and said, "frick you. Pay that man what he wants."

An Chancellor with a set of balls if you will.

From most accounts back then, he left LSU when he got sick & tired of the politics around the position. He went back to his old school but he left because of the B.S. here.

He got sick of Kathleen Blanco. She was pro-ULL, anti-LSU.
