DiNardo may very well be the GOAT for LSU. If not for the LSU brass allowing Carl Reese to walk, he could have been coaching here until retirement.


I was at LSU in 1998 and going into that season the momentum had been building under Dinardo. It really felt like they might be getting it together to make a run. Then Lou Tepper showed up.

I heard an interview recently with Dinardo and he was talking about the "arms race" now and how little he had to work with in comparison back then. I think he was a good coach and it is a shame he will be remembered for the way it ended but that's how the cards fall sometimes.

Joe Dean didnt do him any favors. Can only imagine what Dinardo would have done under Emmert and Skip. Worked out well for the university though, regardless.
