It was sad to see him have to step down when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease but I know he had an analyst/administrative job in the athletic department at least through 2018 when he infamously was punched after the Texas A&M game. Got to meet him once and he really seemed like a great guy who cared about the game.

ETA: Wikipedia says he still is but don’t know how accurate that is. He is not in the football directory.

His son Brad got across the goal line against ND.

Wikipedia said he is still with LSU as an administrative assistant.

Coach Kragthorpe moved on from any coaching or analyst roles. I haven't seen him in some time and I'm not sure what his relationship is with the current staff under BK. Prior to that, he was always welcomed back in the building at LSU.

Coach is a great man who I've had the pleasure of speaking with on several occasions and the Parkinsons is definitely a bitch of a disease.

Hope to see him soon and wish nothing but the best for him.

Side note, his son is on staff with the Bengals so he spends time up there with family watching Joey B and Chase tear it up.

I think I remember LSU was going to pay him while he went through treatment.

I still wish he'd have stretched the ball out. It was 4th down and he had nothing to lose.
