When Billy was at LSU, he was as big as some of the linemen that was blocking for him. If you ever get a chance to sit down and talk with Billy over a beer, do it. He'll have you laughing, we did one night at Hooters.
My father was a year ahead of him at LSU and was his cadet commander. My dad says Billy wanted nothing to do with people telling him what to do. Got himself transferred to another unit when my dad wouldn't "work with him" re work detail etc. He was definitely a bad@ss when he was in school.
