[quote]I 100% agree with your take. I did another post where I compared 23 vs 24 teams Yes there was more talent in 23 BUT the stars played like stars and everyone else OVER ACHIEVED
This year the stars were ok but everyone else UNDER ACHIEVED big time especially pitchers. I believe Coach J thought...

[quote]I understand your point, but the pitching got worse his second year at A&M. That's not stability. [/quote]
How much turn over in the pitching staff from 2022 to 2023?
I know for a fact that aTm went from 3 established starters in 2022 to one (Dettmer) and he had injury issues during 20...

[quote]I picked them to go 17-13. After watching a few scrimmages, I knew the offensive struggles would be there, but I kept thinking back to the 2022 team. Jay's first year here.[b] How could a team with Ma'Khail Hilliard as their Friday night starter go 17-13 in the league, and this one can't?[/b]...

[quote]I never said we needed to pay a mediocre DT millions of dollars. I did say that our staff had failed miserably at getting transfer DTs AFTER our head coach publicly said we needed them then our staff whiffing on every single one that visited.[/quote]
Only problems with your hypothesis:

Park on the south side of the ballpark toward the far rear of the lot (to the east and away from the Bay, next to the Uber/Lyft pick up/drop-off area). Easier and quicker to get out the back way onto H...

[quote] Another recruiting thread with LSUTIGERS8181 and Draco Malfoy proving they know nothing about recruiting or college football in general.
How so? Because what I said would happen actually happened? [b]We whiffed on Blidi, Barrow and Williams[/b]. We don’t have any future DT visits t...
re: What do you do with Hurd moving forward?
Posted by Curtis Lowe on 5/5/24 at 6:32 pm
I think Hurd's issues are more than just mental (while not discounting same in any way, shape or form). There is also a mechanical element involved.
Rantz made a good point on the broadcast that when Hurd drives through the pitch he is more accurate, but when he is trying to pitch away to righti...

[quote]Well they must be. Let’s screw the local company that donates more to NIL than anyone because you believe something else is better. [/quote]
Thank you for posting this. I was shaking my head at the lack of understanding of what the Marucci Company means to LSU (and not just NIL, performan...
re: Is LSU getting Noot back for post season?

This is year 2 for Noot, Redshirted as a Freshman last year....

Desperately in need of quality depth for Sundays. [/quote]
If you think quality depth for Sunday is the only pitching issue for next year, Holman, Gage, and Little will get drafted, all are at least 3 year...

[quote]Does anyone have any idea [b]what JJ is thinking in regards to ever bringing Hurd into a game[/b]

that is winnable? The kid just doesn't have what it take, and no matter how many times JJ runs him out there, he fails miserably. I couldn't believe my eyes that he let him just walk in anot...

Who, little known fact, invented LASIK after his playing days were over [/quote]
I must be living in a time warp, as I had LASIK surgery in 1999 several years before Bruce Sprowl even entered LSU or graduated from high school, this time line does not work.

From 2010 recruiting class:
"[b]Les Miles sure knows how to close.[/b]
After Lane Kiffin was the one piling up signing day flips last year, it was Miles in Baton Rouge doing it this year. He snared 4* WR Kadron Boone, a guy who decommitted from Texas Tech after the Mike Leach fiasco started, a...

[quote]And again, if you're offering the guy 10x that to come to your school, they can roll that into the package.
It's not like you're gonna say "come to LSU and we'll give you half a mil in spending cash, a new car of your choice, and a good condo in an upscale complex", and if he wants the best ...

[quote]And just to clarify it bit-
a free ride to a university (athletic scholarship) is about $30k a semester.

Much closer to $55k to $60k a semester. The medical insurance alone, no co-pays, full payment plan (no out of pocket expenses) that the scholarship athletes enjoy, is a cost...
