No call for firing Beth yet. Not a PEEP! Funny in a way.

The girls are really crushing it so far this year

The criticism up to this point has been more than fair.

2 things can be true at the same time

The best women’s sport. Posters here only know how to call for the firing of the coach in the sport they know nothing about.

When LSU is 20-0, they have nothing to say.

Were you personally hurt that some fans were chirping about Torina not meeting expectations and (up until this year) not making changes? Seems so.

Settle down, we haven’t even hit SEC play yet. All indications seem that the team has improved, but the proof will be in conference and tourney time.

Wake me up when they're contending for a regular season SEC title and a high NCAA seed. Otherwise it's still the same old song and dance.

Glad to see the team doing well. There were some changes made which brought a needed intensity to the coaching staff. Whether or not that was prompted by a Woodward “come to Jesus” meeting with Torina or not, it has helped. This is also a veteran team so this is a good chance to follow through and break through the regional ceiling of the last few seasons.

I hope the program can change its national image. Now these things constantly change but recently you could Google LSU softball and first among the globally-asked questions that were searched in the topic was:

“Who’s that loudmouth idiot behind home plate?”

You really felt the need to start a thread on this?

Yall really don't get it. Let's see how they finish in the SEC and in the postseason. They've done really well in non-conference almost every year. It's expected. I hope they continue on and get a top 8 seed and make it to the WCWS. Unfortunately, if they don't, the 20-0 start will not matter.

UL-L beat LSU in a Regional Final AT HOME last season. Quite frankly, if they would have fired her on the spot, I would have had no problem with it.

They will drop one this weekend if they get them in and you’ll see the pitchforks and torches out.

Where were you the last 5 years? I’ve been pulling for her to do SOMETHING different. She had gotten stale and you know it. She has the worst record of the 4 coaches at LSU since they started the program back in 1997 playing in the SEC (only played 3 years as an independent from 79-81). Torina actually is dragging down LSU’s overall program winning percentage of .735 and only has 2 seasons of at least 50 wins. I’ll always pull for LSU and never a coach, but don’t sit here and act like she’s been lighting it up since 2017. She had 35 and 34 total wins in the previous 2 years.


Cathy Compton 2 years .785 - 1 season 50+ wins

Glenn Moore 2 years .833 - 2 seasons 50+ wins

Yvette Girourd 11 years .755 - 6 seasons 50+ wins

Beth Torina 12 years .699 - 2 seasons 50+ wins

I think regardless of how it happened Beth was forced to hire a new coach and that has brought about some much needed passion around the program. I have seen this stated multiple times.
