Former LSU coach Paul Dietzel 89, who led LSU to its first National Championship in '58, is in poor health according to family members. Prayers to you sir, you'll always be a legend in Tiger Country.
I will always associate Paul Dietzel with LSU, the Go Team, and the Chinese Bandits. It's what made me a Tiger Fan back in the 50s.
When I was a youngen my mom and dad came back from eating at a restaurant where they'd run into him. Brought me back his autograph on a little yellow paper like the "post it" ones but they didn't have those back then. Anyway, I kept it penned on my bulletin board for years. Not sure what happened to it.
