    That's horrible news, I wish he and his family well. What makes it a double dose of bad news is Stud now coaches the offense. Very very bad day for LSU.

    Agreed. I feel awful for Steve and his family. Football's probably the last thing on his mind right now.

    But, why Stud??? Why not Billy G? Stud can hardly manage the OL.

    Why Stud and not Billy G. This bothers me. Hope Krag is ok though...

    My cousin, former LSU pitcher Doug Thompson's mother (also my cousin) has Parkinson's and I can tell you first hand that it is probably the worst disease that someone can be diagnosed with. Terrible, terrible disease that is hard to watch.

    First off, I will pray for Coach Kragthorpe early and often.

    I know it's early, but the affect that this will have on LSU's season could be (and probably will be) devastating.

    This is very tough news for him and his family. I wish him and his family all the best. I'm sure someone of his caliber will live life strong and enjoy everything and everyone in his life.

    Very sincerely,
