Paul Dietzel returns

Posted by TheBear60 on 9/15/26 at 6:29 pm
With all the hoopla about Kiffin returning to Oxford got me thinking about Saban returning to BR with Alabama & also the old timers can remember Coach Ditzel returning to LSU with South Carolina in 1966 - remember he too won a national championship at LSU. I remember his return as a nothing burger, but it was a different time.
Surprised?
Hell No!

It's TigerDroppings Rant site...in 2019 they bitched about the uniforms & not playing Neck!

What do you expect?
Kiffin listened to Saban to come to LSU.
Saban has said many time that the biggest mistake he ever made is leaving LSU.
Why would he made the same mistake Nick made, especially if the money & support is right.......and he is winning.

Sankey dream.

From this day forward, our dream should be to see Sankey face when he hands the SEC Football Championship Trophy to Lane Kiffin in Atlanta in December.
Speaking of tough pill to swallow, how about when the SEC commissioner has to hand Kiffin the SEC Championship throphy?
A long time ago, Valero Corporation purchased a refinery in Norco where I worked. Valero was very big in working with the United Way & hosted a supper to kick off the United Way drive. Jerry Stovall was the guest speaker. I knew he was a good motivational speaker, but by the time he was finsihed, he had 50 year old's ready to run thru a wall for United Way.
May he RIP.

I'm an old man. I am a tradition guy. GWG.

Lane is a @#$% stirrer, but with a smirk.

Hope for the brand uniform aka Texas, Alabama, USC, etc...but get ready for the Rant to explode.

As far as I am concerned, if they win, they can wear LSU's original colors of blue & white (Google it). Just win.
The Rant is surely a love/hate site.
Every morning I get great pleasure reading the posts & wondering how some of the posters are allowed near sharp objects...probably including my self at times.
Thanks for a good job Chicken!
Re #6, Longstreet is now wearing 8. Dottery & Watkins wear 6.
T10,
When I saw this Q I thought it was another waste of time post during the dead days of summer.
I was wrong. I have enjoyed reading the posts.
Good job!
Re Cooley...first day of camp. If you want to make sure everyone is in the right place, etc. that is the safety's job. Why not put an experienced Cooley there with the two's on the first day.
Re Dom...there are many ways to motivate a kid in August.

Re Picket wearing #5 in video, isn't there a number retirement policy?
Cannon had his #20 retired where noone can wear 20 again. I thought it had to do with him winning the Heisman. If so, will 9 & 5 be retired at the proper time?
I understand how 37, 4, etc. is honored on the wall but can still be worn.

When I see one with the new Woodside add logo on it...I will worry
Live in NOLA area. To tell you how old I am...I was in the stadiums for all of the 62-0 games. Know a number of Tulane fans my age. Two things: 1. They hate LSU. 2. Hell would freeze over before they attended any sporting event in BR.
They haven't sold their allotment since Big John was Gov & they will not do it in 2030.
For the record I think we should play them every year...
Be honest...how many of u guys opened the link to see if the OP was talking about you?

TP: forgot about the "pig pot".
FYI for those who weren't there, freshman orientation for the guys was run by the ROTC. On Thursday night, we were to go into Tiger Stadium & have a pep rally with the football team present.
Before we marched into the stadium the freshman companies opened ranks & the freshman girls marched in between the ranks & matched up with the boys. She was your "date" for the event & you had the responsibility to get her back to her dorm that night...it was a different time back then & we did what we were told.
The winner of the pig pot in my company eventually married his "date" & from the last I heard, they lived happily ever after.
Could talk about those days forever...next time we will tell you about the "Ole Miss" riots!

TP: I was a freshman in "63 also. Lived in old Graham. Mandatory ROTC. Nobody believes we wore PJ's & an LSU beanie to the first game.
Those were the days.....
