R.I.P. Coach Robichaux

[ultracajun]

Plenty of time later for naming stuff. People are still numb and crying

Agree, still hurting over here.

[Grantvb]

Same here. I think the longevity of the hurt is equivalent to lives affected by the person who has left us. His will be felt with every pitch, every swing, every play. I just hope we as a fan base and the University don’t leave Mrs. Colleen and the kids behind in obscurity. She sacrificed for this program too.

[Hot Sauce]

This is still hard to believe!! Been a tough couple of days!
RIP Coach Robe

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

I like it with one alteration. Robichaux-Moore. Tony built that stadium brick by brick. Fan by fan. And we MUST dedicate a statue by Opening Night 2020

The T-Robe is too perfect though

[NewsCopy]

Maybe the best example of how highly thought of Robichaux was/is is the respect and admiration shown to him by not just some of his former co-workers, but those that served in a similar capacity that he did

It just Does Not seem REAL! I know he is in Heaven, I know this, but that he was taken So soon, I will NOT question Gods timing, but Tony being gone, just doesn't seem REAL. Love YOU, T.

[DaddyCajun]

Colleen, and her family, IS a part of all of OUR, families in this Cajun Nation. As we are each able to help them in any way, reach out to them. Each of us needs to Man up, drink from the water hose, and live life as we all should and many of us already do. I agree the administration will do the right things to honor Tony. Lets just pray for their family, show our respect for them all, and celebrate Tony's life with us all here on earth. In Gods time I hope and pray that each and everyone of us are with Tony, IN Heaven!

You know. I like it. Yes the T-Robe

Former Ragin' Cajun shortstop Blake Trahan, who made his MLB debut with the Reds last year, felt 'that light' from late UL coach Tony Robichaux.

Thanks for the bump, bc I didn’t read it...Trahan seems to be quite mature for his age...good for him

"But one of the things that always stuck out to me was the part where he said ego was 'Edging God Out.'

"I think that's huge, and huge for me personally as I go out and live my life – you know, getting rid of that ego,"' Trahan added. "That's not the divine within us. That's not the God within us. Just that little saying right there — Edging God Out; ego — is just an incredible way to put it."

Think what this world would be like if just a few more lived this way. I'm going to try and do my part.
