re: We thought Dale couldn't coach

Dale Brown was a great recruiter and motivator. As for coaching, Brown may not have been great, but he was a helluva lot better than what we have today.

(Side note about Dale Brown: I loved the feud he had with Tulane coach Roy Danforth. I remember after a game in which LSU crushed Tulane by nearly 40 points in the late 70's and Danforth allegedly called Brown an S.O.B. on the court, Brown in the postgame press conference called Danforth, "That little punk," and said "I could have laid him out with one punch."
