re: Baseball proves you can have a ton of talent, but that doesn't always equate to success!

You may be right, but I think it's safe to say that every player that Johnson has signed has come into the program with lofty expectations. I have nothing to substantiate this next statement, but I think some of the new, younger players may have come into the program thinking we're the reigning national champs and things were going to be easy, especially since they started the season off 16-2 before conference games started. Regardless of what the problem may be, I have full confidence that Johnson will get the Tigers going back in the right direction soon. Now, do Tiger fans have the patience to let the process work itself out is the big question?

As a former collegiate baseball player, people that make comments like
“ I’m not sure this team has much talent”

Are completely ignorant and foolish.

Generally speaking, if you make a roster on an SEC club, you were one of THE BEST athletes and ball players in a given area.

I played with a ton of great talented athletes that couldn’t perform, for whatever reason. It happens.
Sometimes some kids just went turned it on the next year.
You don’t know until you know.

This team looks different if Kling and another guy or two turned it on.

Speaking of Kling, the kid has TONS of talent and athletic ability.
It’s not Jays fault this kid has struggled. You recruit that kind of player every day and pray they choose your school.
