that 2018 combo of Hal Hughes and Brandt Broussard was lethal



We were lucky that Brandt Broussard was such a big fan of LSU that he was willing to wait until the late summer of 2017 on an offer. Had he just decided that he wanted to secure a spot somewhere rather than wait for us, we would have been fricked.

Hal was a good glove man. Should've set the record for bunts in a season at the plate. Really misused there.

I remember when Broussard was the leading hitter on the 2018 team until his hand got crushed after hit by a pitch by Vanderbilt pitcher. Injured so badly that plates, pins, and screws were necessary. Only stayed out for a couple weeks and returned way too soon because he was needed at second base.

My understanding is he played that way for the rest of the 2018 and the 2019 season and didn’t have metal removed from hand until after his senior season. Kid was unable to grip the bat strongly but still made SEC 2019 Tournament team. You wonder what could have been with him if not for the injury. Heart of a Tiger!
