I loved this guy. I had the opportunity to work with him on a couple of occasions and he was fun to be around and was a true visionary.

Prayers for the family. This guy was a legend.

Damn, I sure hate to hear that...he went down quickly after that stroke...

he built a hell of a program at west monroe and was a direct pipeline for sending the best players to LSU...

ETA: this is anchored because your title is too short...

Met him at a golf tournament in Monroe about 10 years ago; totally unassuming man and very nice to talk to. RIP, Coach Shows

He did what none of his predecessors could do, awaken the sleeping giant and in doing so, elevate the self esteem of an entire community. He got everyone on the same path, and proved that you didn't have to have an overabundance of 5 star athletes to reach and stay at an elite level. He created a blueprint that others now follow. Those are mighty big shoes to fill; thank goodness Jerry Arledge is there to assist in the transition.
