Someone high up at TAF told me the largest donor was someone who didn’t go to LSU. I always assumed graves but I wonder if it was this guy.

Did Pepper Rutland go to LSU? He is who I’ve heard has had the biggest hand in buyouts.
Holden didn’t pay the coaching buyouts, I know that. But he does do a lot and his brother Carlos is an attorney that works closely with LSU athletics.
ETA:
Known the family a long time. Great people.

Didn’t know about Pepper!

Got to be a descendant of Judge Carlos Spaht.

Hopefully, Since he was a starting linebacker on the football team.

You did hang that curveball, but you are a good sport and good Tiger.

There’s a few people it could be. Gary Chouest (Edison Chouest Offshore), for example, went to Nicholls. My money is its Graves though.

It's not him. LSU has several powerful donors who are not public for many reasons.

One of the founders of Yahoo is from Lake Charles but I don’t think he went to school here

Epaminondas. Most effective military leader ever. In my opinion.

Pepper was a bada__ middle linebacker for the Tiger's. I think he may have been all SEC. Good guy, his business, MMR, is very successful.
