    Agreed, man Booger was a beast!! You know, we had a lot of players go to the nfl on those late 90's teams, if Dinardo could coach half as good as he recruited, we may have had a couple of SEC titles.

    Dinardo was doing great as head coach his first three seasons... then he hired Lou Tepper.

    This. Considering the crap he inherited, that man deserved a medal after year 3.

    Good read, indeed.

    I've always thought of Booger and Northern as pioneering the era of dominant D-Linemen at LSU.

    Thanks for posting!

    It's great to see a player like Booger, be successful as an NFL player, play and win a Super Bowl (twice), play a decade in the NFL and retire, at 31 years old (I'm the same age and jealous as all heck!) to spend some time with his wife and 1 year old daughter.

    That's awesome! He made his money as a pro. Retired in good health. Have some business plans set up.... just awesome! :thumb:
