Todd said he ran into Coach Skip today walking in the ballpark, and he agreed with the no bunt. Coach Skip said a bunt would of tied and LSU plays to win.

Thoughts????

2-0 count, hit & run was the right call

Paul seemed to make all the wrong calls this trip to Omaha. It is what it is, great regular season and all but an absolutely embarrassing finish

I think it was a bad call. You play to tie or go home. He should have bunted.

Maybe so but there was no run in the call or it would not have been a DP...

Especially, IMO, when Rhymes was already 0-3 at the time. Oh well....
Think we relied way too much on our long ball. I think when Katz proved that park could be hit out of, it became a home run derby contest for the rest.

He had to pitch at some point, the ump missed the call the would have ended the inning. Eades has been very inconsistent

Ummmm no it wasn't. You move the runner in scoring position, hoping for a hit to tie the game. It was not the right call. Rhymes hit into lots of double plays this season, it wasn't the right call in this situation.

A hit and run couldn't have moved him to second?

None of that crap matters if they would have hit the ball better. Hindsight... 20 20

Aaannnndddd, A nice little quote from some LSU guys turns into the same, tired discussion. I believe the hit and run was the right call. Rhymes hit it to one of two three feet areas that he couldn't. Fire CPM

That's why Skip ain't coaching anymore. Bats have changed.

What do you think Skip is going to say? "Yeah you know Paul really fricked up there"?
