Is critical... LSU peaked back in April. Vandy peaked early. State is peaking now......

I know we like to grip it and rip but.. my Lord... if the kid bunts there...Katz goes to 2nd... Ibarra walks... Moore's single prob scores Katz....

| Jus asking... would you have bunted Bregman? - GA Tiger on 6/8/13 at 7:28 am
The way both pitchers were throwing you knew this was going to be a low-scoring game so... you try to scratch across a run...
Early in the game (4th inning or so..) Laird gets on w/his infield single bringing up Bregman. I know he's the 3 hole hitter etc... but I really thought PM would have him...

| I think the atmosphere at "The Box" helps us pull it out. - GA Tiger on 6/6/13 at 10:40 am
As I think back over this year... as best I remember, the only times LSU has struggled has been against good pitching. South Carolina beat us two out of 3 at home and we struggled against Stanek in the SEC tournament. Okla has 2 very good pitchers. I'm hoping a little magic from the atmosphere at...

Ok...first, there may already be a thread on this.. I didn't check...
Second.. I like Rhymes.. good kid.. good player etc..
BUT... he seems to hit into a LOT of double plays. It even seems like he hits better when no one is on base. He hit into two today and he seems to hit into them regula...

| Thoughts on why baseball seems to have slowed down - GA Tiger on 4/25/13 at 2:58 pm
I've read several posts that people seem to feel baseball is in a slump. A couple of thoughts on that...
1) I told someone about a month ago I was concerned that we were peaking too early. You can't stay as hot as we were throughout the season.
2) I kinda question if they got "up" for the Ba...

| This has been coming - GA Tiger on 1/1/13 at 3:34 pm
For the past couple of years.. going back to maybe Chavis first year... Miles has been relying on his solid defense to win games. It's almost like the offense doesn't have to score.. just don't turn it over. We win w/defense and a good special teams play sprinkled in. That works at times, but you...

| Wonder if Russell Shepherd regrets coming back? - GA Tiger on 1/1/13 at 11:00 am
Last year.. after the BCS debacle, Shep was planning to go pro UNTIL.. Miles evidently talked him out of it. I wonder what Miles told him and I wonder if Shep could kick himself for not going ahead and going pro? How many times did he see the field this year on offense? Not counting kick-off and ...

Watching ESPN late last night, they showed a clip of Mile press conference. The clip they showed was Miles saying "Those young men are spent.." lol After a game like that.. he says "those young men are spent?"
Soo... I'm thinking the whole team.. players.. coaches... were not REAL fired up a...

| I feel like we have totally wasted Russell Shepherd - GA Tiger on 10/8/12 at 9:34 am
Four years ago, Shepherd was one of the leading recruits coming out of high school. He was a high school qb w/a questionable arm. They try to convert him to W.R. Supposedly he has trouble catching the ball. Ok.. line him up at slot back, tailback.. put him in the wildcat & direct snap it.. DO S...

| An observation...Lack of focus.. a tendency that leads to other issues - GA Tiger on 9/25/12 at 10:09 am
In ever how many years Miles has been LSU's H.C... a couple of things mark every team he puts on the field..
1) Penalties
2) Time management issues
3) Playing up or down to the opponent
4) A tendency to jump out to an early lead... relax... and sometimes let the other team catch up (Tenn. seve...

| Miles turned def over to Chavis...hire a good OC & do same w/offense - GA Tiger on 9/23/12 at 7:54 am
Miles is a good man...great recruiter...He basically made Chavis HC of the D. Why not do same with offense. Hire someone creative & turn O over to them. I feel like we have wasted Shep for 4 years. ...

Anyone familiar with the player who was Mr. Baseball in Louisiana this year? I believe Cechni is his name? I notice he signed with Ole Miss although he was drafted 1st round. Just asking.. anyone know why LSU didn't get him? He is from Lake Charles. ...

Watching the CWS, Ark & S.C. can bunt which LSU struggled to do this year. Yet PM says his coaching staff will remain intact.. says hitting coaches are overrated. I give the man credit for having some intelligence. I know Javi is his boy but, I do not understand why PM doesn't see the need to m...

To take the crowd out of it? I saw this more w/Ore. State than Stony Brook... A couple of times, when LSU would get a hit or two, he would go to the mound. He did it several times which looked like he was trying to slow down "Mo."...

| Stony Brook's defense & specifically.. Jankowski - GA Tiger on 6/12/12 at 9:59 am
Several balls that LSU hit seemed like they would fall but Jankowski got them. They either had LSU well scouted or Jankowski is really fast or both. He seemed to cover the entire outfield. And.. there S.S. was good. Made a great catch on a line shot late in the game Sunday. ...

As all of you know.. sometimes the champion in sports is the team that gets hot at the right time. (ie.. New York Giants in football.. Cardinals in baseball last year). Several weeks ago, LSU was rolling... I think they peaked early. I don't know that they were going to win it all anyway but.. the...
