re: LSU Gymnastics Recruiting Thread (2024 and 2025 Recruiting Classes)

I am fine with super seniors in lineup if they are the best options. Whoever is the best option should be in the lineup. If Kiya comes back and is top 6 on an event, she should be in there. What we shouldn't have are better routines sitting on the sidelines out of loyalty to long-term contributors, which is arguably what we had a couple years ago.

To be fair to Jay I think he has shown that he can evolve. He did a good job this year of avoiding these issues. He took out people who have been in lineup for ages like Ballard on floor. I also like that he was changing lineups to optimise them even in postseason like Sav on beam rather than picking his 24 routines by midseason and just sticking with them. There was competition for those last spots and you could tell.
