re: Listen up Folks.. LSU baseball team will be fine

I've been coaching or preparing coaches through univetsities for 59 years. A while back a stellar west Tennessee coach told one of my classes, "if you build your team on potential you will soon be unemployed. You build your team on results!" This baseball team is high on potential and so far, very disappointing on results.

Coach Speak Philosophy. One of those things that sounds smart on the surface but really isn't that smart but does have a ring of truth to it. When a coach recruits kids out of high school they are recruiting them based on the results they had while in high school. The results they had in high school shows they have potential to make it to the next level. Sometimes it doesn't pan out.

Take Little for example. He was recruited to come here based on the results he had at Vanderbilt.

The moral of the story is all recruits are recruited based on potential.
