Any idea when team reports back from holidays? When is first official practice? Going to be a fun year!

Who’s our ace? Do we have an ace this year?

Skenes. Might have a couple if Hurd gets back into form.

44 days til first pitch, so you'd have to expect they're going to be out there as early as next week just before school resumes.

I keep trying to find ways to temper my expectations of this team, but I can't. The lineup is stacked, the pitching staff is stacked, the bench is stacked, and the NCAA is Fricked.
But to answer your original questions, I don't know.

I’m guessing Skenes. Transfer from Air Force.

Jordan Thompson going to have a helluva year.

Hurd if his health progresses
Floyd had a ridiculously good fall camp
Taylor lit it up in the summer
Little has a ton of upside
Shores and Noot are future weekend guys

Probably Skenes or Hurd but either way this pitching staff is loaded!

I'd bet the season starts with Taylor/Skenes/Hurd(if healthy) rotation.
Ends with Hurd/Taylor/Skenes.

Usually a four week practice period before the first game, which is February 17. Classes resume at LSU on the day after MLK Day, January 17, so we're still two weeks away from official team practices. I'm sure they'll be doing a lot of individual work prior to that. JJ never sleeps.

There are some questions that still need to be answered:
1. Can Thompson find his glove at SS?
2. Who is going to win the 2nd base job?
3. With so many potential front line pitchers, what role does each guy play?
4. Will we have a true closer?
5. Can Millazo hit enough to keep Neal out of the lineup?
6. How does the outfield shake out? I'm assuming Pearson if LF, Crews in CF, Kling in RF.
7. Where is the best place to stay in Omaha?

Eh I think Skenes is our Friday guy.

Floyd is going to be hard to keep out of the rotation too.

Saw the day counter till a game it was at like 45. I got the sads to wait that long
Posted on 1/4/23 at 10:20 am to sportsfan
I think Floyd will be our long go-to reliever. Seems like he performs better once the game is underway and needs to hold a team down.
Posted on 1/4/23 at 10:21 am to Riolobo
I think they keep Skenes as the Friday guy so they can use his bat the rest of the weekend without the idea of having a pitching start lingering.

Floyd was throwing a ton of off speed and making it work. If he can keep doing that he could be the Ace of this staff, or at least a dominant Saturday guy.

Defense unproven, middle infield has to get right.
Posted on 1/4/23 at 10:33 am to sportsfan
Serious question. Does anyone have reservations booked for Omaha and if so where?
