Correct, he was from Brookhaven I believe and was married. Vaught had a rule against it. So he went to Ark and the rest is history.
Had the old crook known how good he was, he would have taken him anyway.
Vaught wasn't a genius, he went out and basically gave a scholarship to the QB on almost every good team. They were usually the best athletes, so when he got them, if it didn't work out at QB, he would switch them somewhere else.
He wouldn't be worth a damn in today's scholarship restricted world.
Integration and sholly limits drove that old cheating bastard out, not "heart problems"
Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.
