Tim Rebowe, head football coach at Nicholls State is a LSU graduate. We had several classes together..

I know the topic is about those who played sports at LSU, but the topic is pretty generic and I know there are lots of us alumni who have been, or still are very successful head coaches in our world.

One of Dale's players from the 80's I believe was head coach for a small school in the new England area a while back. I can't remember his name, but he was basically a backup during his playing days.
Also, former LSU assistant Rick Huckaby coached Marshall University and former LSU assista Musselman " the one armed bandit coached Arkansas.

Orgeron played his freshman year at LSU before transferring to Northwestern State. Not sure if he actually got any playing time, but he was on the team. Not an alum but was on the team for a time.
