Here’s my opinion on things. Jay is a young coach. He’s never coached in the SEC until now. Young coaches have to go through the process of learning just like the players do.

Young coach? Johnson is 46 years old and has been a D-1 HC for a decade. At what age/experience level does one stop being a “young coach”?

I mean Jay is the youngest coach we’ve hired since before Skip I think. Skip was a mature older man. Smoke was older. Paul was an older and established baseball coach.

Bertman was 46 when he was hired and had never been a college HC. Smoke was 47 and had only 7 years of HC experience…at a small school. Maineri was 49. Johnson was 44. That’s not a huge age difference. Plus, Johnson had 6 year experience at one of the better programs out west before he took the LSU job.

Did you think Johnson was 30 years old? He’s the second most experienced baseball coach LSU has hired in at least 40 years
