Joe Dean hired 3 NC winning coaches and owns 95% or so of LSUs National Championships as AD. It could be argued that he is the Most Decorated AD in LSU sports history.
Yeah hired Sam Seemes, Pat Henry and Nick Saban. He also hired Curly Hallman. He did not hire Mike Archer sorta. Arnsbarger screwed LSU in that deal.
During his tenure, Dean oversaw arguably the greatest athletic era in school history. The LSU baseball team won five national championships (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000) while the men's and women's track teams accounted for 22 national championships combined, including a record 11-consecutive NCAA Outdoor Track and Field championships by the women's team. At the time of his retirement, the 27 national championships under Dean's guidance were an SEC record.
The LSU football team won one SEC Championship (1988), two SEC Western Division Championships (1996, 1997) and four bowl victories (1995, 1996, 1997, 2000) in his 14 years. Among Dean's final major decisions at the helm of the athletic department was to hire Nick Saban as head football coach.

Yeah hired Nick Saban
no he didn't.
Mark Emmert did.
Emmert came out publicly and straight up said he was going to do this hiring and not Joe Dean.
he then went out and got Saban.
Dean was even quoted specifically as saying we paid Saban too much and he would have gotten him cheaper.
Would Saban have come here for less money?
Nobody knows.
But we do know that Joe Dean never would have gotten to that dollar amount.
And refusal to play with the big boys financially is what always held LSU back before.
