diplacedportcityboy-- I am Al's second son and I live in Alexandria. If your move to Dallas takes you up I-49, drop me a line.
double d- Daddy graduated from Hahnville high in 1949. His younger brother(Jack) was 2 years behind him. He,like my dad, was very tall man. He stood about 6'6" and played college football and basketball at Trinity in San Antonio. He is in the Trinity college basketball Hall of Fame. I still remember as a kid being amaze at the size of these two men.
leeh. Thanks. Dad passed away about 18 months ago and all the kids miss him dearly. He was the guy I would call when life really got tough. Seems like dad had seen it and done it all.
Yes, Vance played at OCHS and then Mcneese in the early 1980's. This was Al Robichaux's third son and the most accomplished football player. Vance was an outstanding high school football player. He was just bigger and faster than the kids he played with. A little known fact, he suffered a compartment syndrome from a helmet to his shin his junior year that nearly ended his playing days.
Al Robichaux was my dad. He played ball at LSU from '50-'53.Freshmen were ineligible to play back then, but dad started and lettered in '51,'52,and '53. He was an offensive tackle. He also played freshman basketball but dropped that after one year. Dad was a very tall man especially for the 1950's. His senior year the roster listed him at 6'4" or 6'5"(Mom has the scrap book). This made him the tallest on the roster. It hard to comment on my dad's "toughness", he didn't say too much about his playing days at LSU.
