He waited to see us win a Superbowl. I wish he had waited for another couple of rings. R.I.P.

Isn't he John's kid? He just liked the cheerleaders more than football.
Can't say I blame him.

He was an excellent coach who like many had the misfortune of trying to coach the Saints during Mecom era. RIP!

Agreed about North.

Also, if I am not mistaken, most of the Saints coaches got to see them win.
Too bad Hank Stram passed away (2005).
