1. Woodward
2. Broadhead
3. Bertman
4. Aleva
5. Dean

Woodward wants the best of everything, goes out and gets it and is willing to pay for it. Dean was the opposite of this. Dean was a great guy and a charismatic speaker, but he thought everything was on cruise control. Until he self destructed, Broadhead had some of Woodward's best attributes, but not to the same extent. I love Skip, but he did not have these attributes. I give him credit for hiring Saban, although Saban fell into his lap. Aleva was snake bit.

Broadhead made the lifetime contract with Florida every year. About the only good thing he did. Jury is still out on Woody. The Louisville baseball coach wanted the job badly, and didn't get it. Dean hired Curley based on one win, and let Dale Brown hang around too long

this is total nonsense. LSU football was becoming a monster by the end of 2006. There was no going back to Saban at that point. No AD in the country would have made that move

Saban was far from a generational coach at the time he left the dolphins

This would be like Baylor getting a tip Matt Rhule wanted back and shite canning aranda

So let me get this straight because I cannot believe someone could be this stupid. I’ll give you a shot at googling something to save face:

1. He hire Skip, NCAA Tournament in 1986
2. He hired Arnsbarger who won the SEC in 1986 and brought the team from shite after Jerry Stovall
3. He hired Sue Gunter, who was outstanding before he hired her away. Without her, there is no Pokey Chapman for example who made those runs after she became ill possible.
4. He hired Sam Seemes who won an NCAA title and who then was replaced by Pat Henry the next season.
5. He was responsible for working with others to get TAF formed.

Many on here have stated that 1986 was one of the greatest years in LSU sports history with a Football SEC Title, MBB final 4 and Baseball reaching Omaha for the first time.
But he sucked.
