was there for that game and every home game Pete ever played at LSU. that is why this crap we are forced to watch and try to support is so maddening

I went to games back then too and Pete was the only reason to watch LSU during that time. The teams he played on really weren’t that good. It was pretty much just watch Pete do his thing.

LSU's record in 70-71 the year after Pete finished at LSU was 14-12 and 10-8 in conference play and finished 3rd in the conference that year....that record was better than the record of 2 of the 3 teams that Pete played varsity ball for in his career here.

I believe his senior team finished second in the SEC behind Ky.
But back then things were way different than they are now. Only the SEC champ went to March Madness, there was no SECT, and the SEC was not a good bball league.

We did get invited to the NIT which was a pretty big deal at the time and Pete got drunked up and we were embarrassed.
