There's an interesting dichotomy with the Hebert's.
He played HS ball and won a state title with Bay-Bay Orgeron way down on da bayou. He was a multi-year all-state safety until his senior year. I believe the story goes that their QB got hurt and he took over the QB spot his last year and they won a state championship.
Dude played small college ball in-state at the same position (had some big-time offers to play in the Secondary IIRC) and then played in some minor pro leagues here and in Canada as well.
Got a shot with the Saints and never looked back.
As far as his antics, the Saints allow him to trash up their press box and hoot and holler. He's viewed as a less loquacious yet just as accented Buddy D in a sense.
His connection to LSU is through his son. T-Bob was a quality utility guy on the OL that Les really liked a little too much. He was good as a backup or a spot-starter. Unfortunately we-and by we I mean Les-viewed him like an All-American.
He didn't see the field much on 1/9/12 so Bobby blew his stack over that as much as the loss and the way we played, you can guarantee that.
I can also tell you that he's been warned in previous seasons (2007 in particular) about rooting in the LSU Press Box. I believe he was thrown out this year at the Bama game.
The word around the campfire is that LSU came down hard on WWL when they were allowing him to blather on and on after 1/9/12 about Les Miles. To the point where they called him and told him to muzzle up.
Ironically, his son is on the local ESPN affiliate trying to eke out a career as a sports broadcaster. He's alright, but he's a young guy and there isn't much polish.
I have heard some scuttlebutt that there is another Jed...Errr...Hebert. One that plays the QB position. Who knows where he may end up if that's indeed the case and he's a decent player?
