they need to win their tourney to make it, if they lose they may not get an at-large.

Good for him. He's a good coach. Just not the best lsu can do.

Ask any player who played under Smoke if they think he was a good coach, especially when he assisted Skip.

Those older players will defend him 100%.

Maybe he's better in a smaller school like North Florida as HC or as a top assistant in a big-time program vs being the head guy a large program?

Some guys are just like that..

He did get LSU to two college World Series. Most college coaches could only dream of that.

I don't fault Smoke for not winning enough games here, but for how he acted on his way out the door......frick him

Agreed.....the guy was one bitter bastard. Him and Brady both had the fatal flaw of biting the hand that fed them.

Yep he had NLU 1st in the sunbelt and beat LSU in a midweek game. I'll say it again though "Smoke ain't Skip"!!

So how did it go down with smoke?

He was pretty stout as a coach.

With the amount of programs that now have head coaches who had previous assistant coaching experience at the lsu's cal state fullertons of the world, lsu will never be the juggernaut it once was.

Wasn't too long ago I made a thread about him: So how is Smoke Laval doing you ask?

The Ospreys home stadium, Dusty Rhodes Field at Harmon Stadium, seats 1,000...

I think Smoke is a hell of a baseball coach but couldn't handle a program this size alone like it takes. He used the LSU reputation to recruit and got us to Omaha a few times. Towards the end he almost killed the program though.

And he always looked asleep in the dugout.

I know that but they aren't gonna win 2 ncws for every 4 years like the posters on the rant.

I'm sure the majority thought cpm would have had 3-4 of those by now.
