wait is the untold chapter of Billy Cannon true or is it also part of the fiction?
So, you'd have to ask the author but the book reads like a memoir to me.
Kind of a family saga too but there are a lot of things/events and people in the book that I remember...

Ok, got the book, read it. It is pretty cool. It's not an LSU book per se, but has some great fragments of LSU history and I enjoyed reading about Billy Cannon. Interesting stuff.
I'll give it 4.75 stars and definitely recommend.

Sure but the whole plot of every book is identical (I’ve read them all so not a knock).
- New scary Viking leader
- Uthred tells them all how to beat new scary Viking leader
- Uhtred is not trusted because he’s a pagan and is accused of siding with the Vikings by some evil Saxon lord
- Alfred (then later Edward), believed evil Saxon lord although Uthred has saved England like 11 times at this point
-Uhtred tells them all to frick off but gets roped in anyway
- Uhtred saves the day with brilliant plan that everyone thinks will fail, gets no credit
- rinse repeat
I love the series but this is dead on, and annoying

Nope, you're wrong. Aaron carried decades-old racism into his grave. I won't dispute that he was racially attacked by Whites in the early 70s. But I grew up in Atlanta much later & Aaron was highly revered. Although he was black, I never heard Whites speak ill of Aaron.
He ignored racial improvements between Whites and blacks & chose to hold on to the racism until his death. Perhaps the media used him for racial divisiveness, but he also embraced it.
Great player, but also a race pimp.
Atlanta here, don't know wtf you are babbling about. Hank wasn't some activist that Im aware of

Turning on Trump didn't earn them any goodwill with the overlords.
They will be in the camps with the rest of us, goodluck when everyone hates you.
