Plenty of folks want to cannonize Skip for his time as AD. Skip has been going on the radio telling people that he was visionary during coaching searches, etc. The hard truth is Skip was brough on as AD to be the messenger for the imposition of tradition fees. He was a figurehead. LSU needed someone popular to tell its fans and donors that something enormously expensive and unpopular was needed to compete at the highest level. That guy was Skip Bertman.
