Morning Folks!
A good interview. I sent this to a few coaches that were on the LSU staffs during that time.
Talks a number of topics. Sean Wells was the No. 1 recruit in Oklahoma and admits he likely would’ve been a Sooner if legendary coach Barry Switzer hadn’t been fired. Instead, Wells found his way to Baton Rouge and became a Tiger from 1992–96. He reflects on working full-time in high school to attend a better school district, the lifelong brotherhood he built at LSU, and his connection to Saints legend Derland Moore. Now helping coach the offensive line at Mandeville High, Wells also gives his thoughts on LSU’s current group in the trenches.




Sean!
Years ago I worked for a major corporation. I was asked to represent them in the United Way Campaign. Also asked to oversee the campaign, Jerry Stovall. One of the best I’ve ever been associated with.

RIP Coach Stovall.

UH is one of the few schools that has "surrounding area" issues like LSU.


Rice University is about 3.6 miles east-southeast of the University of Houston.

Rice was playing Uof Houston on a Thursday Night. I was friends with a number of coaches on the staff at Rice. From Rice they had a bus drop us off at the old stadium, got us in a suite. That night Bum’s son Wade came back for an award presentation. We were in the same suite with him. Guess it was 2013, cause the new stadium was built the following year.

They had agreed on a girls name first, Cassidy. Cassidy can be spelled a number of different ways.

Years later, they found out, both Cody’s, celebrate their birthdays on the same day, March 22.

Cody Risien’s youngest daughter is named Cassidy, spelled the same way as the Gifford’s daughter.

What some might not know.

About 36 years ago, Kathie was pregnant for her and Franks first child. Frank was covering a Pro game. The Browns were playing, on that team was a guy named Cody Risien. Frank and Kathie Lee had a girls name. But couldn’t agree on a boys name. After Frank returns from the game, Kathie asks about the name Cody. They decide on Cody, if it’s a boy. And it was a boy.

Luckily, I know of a trendy Mexican Bistro where the margaritas are fresh, the salsa has an attitude and the chips are crisp. Fresh and warm with a hint of salty lime.

I’m already there in my mind as the mariachi band adjusts their fancy sombreros like they’re about to drop a mixtape.

I’ll save ya a saddle stool.


When South Of The Border, we go to this place.
Pancho's Bar!

The Mariachi Bands play in the town. But they also play in the Big Church, on our side of the Border!

Enjoy!
