My childhood spent at the old box watching his teams. I’m sure he will find a game to coach in heaven. RIP Skip.

The man is a true Baton Rouge legend. Losing him and Cador in the same year, what a blow.

I have heard Skip give many speeches throughout the years. He was one of the most captivating speakers I have ever heard and was funnier than 99% of the stand up comics I have ever heard.
The most memorable speech was at an event at the Jefferson Orleans right after Saban was hired. The three speakers on the dais were Skip, Saban and John Brady. Skip was at his best that day, probably wanting Saban to hear his best material for the first time. He gave a masterful performance, using his best jokes and stories. I have followed Saban very closely throughout the years and I can say that that is the only time I have ever seen him cracking up laughing.
RIP to the GOAT.

If you can vividly imagine, ardently
desire, sincerely believe, and
enthusiastically act upon a goal, it will
come to pass.

Rest easy Skip. We’ll miss you.

I just hear that Mickey Mantle kept calling him, Slip Beecham. Too funny
