Story Goes that he was almost our coach... After Arnsparger if I remember correctly... But then he didn't become the coach
Arnsparger and the team lobbied hard for Archer to get the job.

Dumb arse LSU Admins bought the pleas hook, line and sinker.

They hired Archer over Spurrier, Mike Shanahan and Sam Rigliano. (Saints)

What could have been!

Spurrier and Shanahan weren't exactly known commodities at that point and the thought was that Archer would keep the momentum going.
