Description

To the LSU coaching legend: "You have done so much to help set proper priorities for your athletes, sometimes putting education ahead of victory on the court—a truly great example for all"

ALS, one page both sides, 6.25 x 8.5, personal letterhead, February 8, 1997. Letter to Louisiana State University’s men’s basketball coach Dale Brown upon his retirement, in part: “There was something very special about this article. ‘Class’ is one word that clearly applies to you; but it’s even more. You have done so much to help set proper priorities for your athletes, sometimes putting education ahead of victory on the court—a truly great example for all.” Bush adds a brief postscript, “I happily recall my campaign visit to LSU years ago with you at my side.” In fine condition.
