Ditto the sentiments of all above. R.I.P. coach Stokley.

Prayers go out to Brandon and his family. Mr. Stokley was indeed a great coach for USL (ULL). I will never forget that game when we beat Texas A&M. I was younger but read all the wild stories about the after parties. It was a great time for USL athletics.

My sympathies to the entire Stokley and ULL families.

A great player for LSU and the best head coach USL ever had.

RIP Nelson

Let's not forget that nelson was a pretty good qb at LSU in the '60's ('65-67). I was a kid, bit i still remember # 14. Prayers to the family.

I knew Mr. Stokely, as my sister graduated with Brandon, married his best friend, and I used to cover Brandon in practice.
He was a good man. RIP

Definitely a sad day in the Ragin Cajun family and the Acadiana area. Coach Nelson was a great man and a great coach. He will be greatly missed.

RIP Coach!
