Hey Jay, thanks for answering my question about a potential book about Robe. Id love to read something about the man one day.

There's a group that will be working on this.

Hopefully information on how we can contribute to this effort can be shared on this forum. I am sure it will be on Twitter and Facebook as well.

You never really know what you've got until it's gone. Rest well, Coach Robe!

I wonder if the academic folks at UL (maybe English department) can see about helping getting the book published.

Is there a Robicheaux, Louisiana? If not might be a neat idea to turn the Tigue into the city limits of Robichaux. Put city limits signs up where you walk into the stadium.

You guys talking about getting money together for Robe projects, the new CEO at Tabasco is a UL Alumni, may be worth a call...

Very sad news indeed. Thank you Coach for all you have done. You left this Earth much too young. RIP and God Bless your family.

Geesey-Ferguson Funeral Home in Crowley is in charge of arrangements.

[cajun_lannister]

That might be appropriate. Signifying the place where he did the majority of his life lessons. I’m in for some $$$$s if needed

It needs to be Moore-Robichaux field by the start of next seaon ...

That would be cool.

OT: incorporate the athletic department into the city of Louisiana. Thus, the University of Louisiana at Louisiana.
