re: The richest LSU Alumni

The Forbes list is "The 20 Most Valuable college football programs".
It in no way takes into account wealthiest alumni or which school has access to the most money.
Example being T.Boone/OSU not being in the top 10, South Carolina being #11, and Arkansas at #15 despite Wal-Mart, the Waltons, and the nations wealthiest (not movie star/athlete "rich" but "I'll buy your entire fricking state just to shite in it "wealth")being a major part of the University.
So, the Forbes list is moot except when wanting to know what the people are actually forking over.

Too bad the Walton's can't buy Arkansas that elusive SEC Football Champsionship.

I've accepted certain realities.

Mary Cain is worth at least a half billion. Her husband passed away a few years ago. He was a huge oil dude.

I've heard Patrick F. Taylor's wife is possibly the richest person in the state of Louisiana - and she may be the only in-state billionaire. No idea if she went to LSU though, but clearly they donate a good bit of money to the university...

Millard Morris in the great city of DeRidder is also a Billionaire. Started off a high school basketball coach with Aubrey Temple. They stopped and started an insurance company. Temple was close in 2000, i dunno if she crossed the line yet, but Morris is a billionaire. Their kids went to LSU and Morris has a hot daughter who is a Fresh at LSU right now. Tell your sons to find her!!!!

Was this the same Mecom that owned the Saints, or was it his son who owned the Saints?

I think that would have to be the one. Dr. Andrews has to be pretty wealthy too, I would imagine.
