being from Louisiana, why didn't Terry Bradshaw play at LSU? What made him choose louisiana tech over the big school in the state.

He wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed. But I think he did alright for himself.

He's always claimed he couldn't get in school, but LSU had open admissions at the time. If you had a pulse, you were in.

I read his biography and he said he actually signed with LSU and changed his mind basically because he lacked the confidence and didn't think he was good enough to play at LSU. He said panicked and was trying to figure out a way to get out of it. SO he purposely flunked the entrance exam.

Can anyone who attended LSU back then confirm whether there was an "entrance exam" that Bradshaw would have had to pass?

Nice link.

And the Phil Robertson the text is referring to? Same Robertson of duck dynasty fame….

Bradshaw was Phil's backup at Tech.

Cowboys LB Hollywood Henderson said Bradshaw couldn't spell cat if you spotted him the a and the t.

IIRC the SEC required an 18 on the ACT. He tried 2-3 times and couldn't make it.

Anyone that would take the word of a perverted drug addict like Henderson is much much dumber than Bradshaw ever was...at least the latter had enough sense to live a decent life! jmho

Bradshaw has a lot of championship & MVP rings on his fingers, as well as he seems to be doing quite well financially. So if he's dumb, what does that make you? He's a real down to earth guy, has always proclaimed his love for La. and praises LSU every time the opportunity comes up. I like and admire that guy & do not consider him "dumb" in any way.
