Bo Rein was hired after the '79 season to replace Charlie Mac. He was to fly back from S'port to BR in Jan. '80 (recruiting trip). I believe Stovall kept most of his staff that first yr.

He was from Ohio, and played at OSU. I remember being pretty excited about his hire.

There is another interesting connection between LSU, Bo Rein and Ohio State where he played. Ohio State has a continuing tradition at the end of every season where the team votes to award one teammate the "Bo Rein Most Inspirational Player Award.

The first winner of the Bo Rein Most Inspirational Player Award...Bo Pelini.

Bo Rein was head coach of LSU for 42 days. This is the only image I remember seeing of him with his LSU pin.
