LSU drumline during offensive plays back in the day? When/why did it stop?

I watched a little of the 1987 game vs UF on ECL last night and every time Hodson dropped back to pass, the drumline started playing.
Did the coaches tell the band that it helped tip off the defense when they played it every time Hodson dropped back?
Run/pass? Listen for the drums!

feel like the NCAA made a rule against the band playing during a play

SEC specifically has a rule that the band can only play after a play is whistled dead up to the point where the center is over the ball.

I was there. I heard cursing.

I was in the band in those days. The drums played on every play, not just passes.
The drums playing during plays have been replaced with the 2nd and 3rd down cheers, which didn't exist until the 90s.

I remember hearing it at my first ever LSU game when I was a little kid against Auburn in 1969, when I was a freshman at LSU in 1982...
I miss it. "GOOOO !! rum bum rum bum ba-bum
GOOOO !!! rum bum rum bum ba-bum GOOOO big tigers GOOOO !!! rum bum rum bum ba-bum....
Now it's a quick pre-game derivation...

Hell yeah! Used to love that cheer when we put together a long drive. Good old days.

Thank God the rules about the band playing during plays have changed. There is nothing more annoying than going to a high school football game and hearing the band play whenever they want to, as if there isn't even a game going on. I am all about bands and I love them...but your job is not to play during game action. You are NOT the main attraction.
