I had the privilege of teaching and coaching his two nephews at WCCA. They were both very good football players. They didn't attend LSU. Bobby VB got a football scholarship to LA Tech. They were both fond of their Uncle and praised him all the time.

I think Bobby actually played at ULM (it was NLU at the time). I remember when they moved from BR to Woodville. There was an article in the Advocate about Bobby getting to WCCA and could barely read or write. He had gone to BR public schools and they just let him pass because of football and it turned out he had a learning disorder. He was a beast when he played at WCCA.
