RIP Skip 'The GOAT'
Went to his baseball camp at LSU when I was ~10 years old in the mid 80's. Got a picture with him.

Never met him but he was one of a kind. He loved baseball and LSU.
LSU Has Lost a Legend. His family has lost a Hero.
Thank you for being the kind of person that could inspire the good in others.
You will forever be a Tiger.
I recorded Hold The Rope and watch it all the time. I Try to use its basics in my life.
Thoughts to his family and Prayers are with you.

Corbin, Stephenson, Polk, Gaurrido, Casey, Tanner, all great coaches but there is only one Bertman. The greatest to ever do it. RIP coach

Ran across this when searching the internet...
It is a Facebook post from an account Ghosts of the Orange Bowl but is open for reading (I don't have a Facebook account).
The posts give you an idea of how many lives Coach Bertman impacted. And there are some great old-time pictures.
Also discovered that the actor Mickey Rourke played baseball at Miami Beach HS for Skip (he's in one of the pics posted).

This is one of the saddest days in LSU sports history. Skip changed the sport that we all fell in love with. He will always be remembered as the greatest to ever do it and we all got to witness it firsthand. We are lucky and will forever be grateful. RIP Skip
