re: Missing Skenes here in Austin would be similar to missing the opportunity to see Joe in 19

So Joe Burrow isn't the greatest athlete in LSU history?

There were far greater athletes including football players at LSU that played 2 ways like Jerry Stovall for example. Doc Casanova.
Let’s move to track and field- there are probably 10 I can name with the men alone not including all of those women.

So many in basketball that we can’t count including on this year’s team that are better athletes.

Look, I love Joe and root for him hard with the Bengals but he isn’t even close to the most decorated athlete in LSU history…

Athlete is about athletic ability and not playing the position of quarterback.

Obviously my fault bringing a comparison to Joe because I should have known thread would get derailed thinking I was saying he was a good overall as Joe.
I was just suggesting it’s a mistake to miss this pitcher live.
He looks special and we have had a lot to compare him to on the mound.

Dude you just made a claim about Burrow that was completely irrelevant to point of the OP and now you’re looking for someone to argue this irrelevant point.

I can’t speak for OP but I’ll try and simplify it for you: Skenes is an absolute unit, if you were creating a pitcher in a laboratory you take Skenes and clone him. He is that good and has that much talent/potential. It has nothing to do with where they “rank” on your LSU athlete list. Skenes has the potential to do things we haven’t seen done in an LSU uniform and missing the chance to see him in person could potentially be be similar to missing out on Burrow’s Heisman run. Pretty simple.
