Ok. I just still cannot believe it is the just the talent of these guys being bad. All these guys can throw pitches. It is in their head now.

Can’t even pitch to contact. So distressing.

The bullpen has gotten worse as the season has gone on. They have not developed with the season. Stagnant at best.

Can we have student body try outs? It can’t be worse.

Yeah, I think that the entire pitching roster is this bad and haven't improved any has to fall on the coach. Either he can't coach them or he is monumentally bad at evaluating talent.

Wes Johnson is a MLB pitching coach, were they already know how to pitch. He's failed miserably at LSU.

I defended him but now I believe he is overrated. Under great coaches you see improvement in players as the season goes on. Nobody in this bull pen has shown any improvement whatsoever, in fact they’ve all gotten worse.

Ill give him a season or 2 to get his guys and work more than a offseason with what we already have. May not change but id give him time. We have key injuries at the position that really hurt and need depth.

He hired the same pitching coach that was fired mid season from MSU a few years back for not being able to manage that staff and 7-9 season ending UCL injuries
