Jay Johnson Reality Check
Posted on 4/8/24 at 3:10 pm

I'm sure someone else has posted the same sentiment on this in the past few days, but I feel like this vocal minority of people wanting Jay Johnson fired or claiming he's on the hot seat are simply crazy. I will be the first one to tell you that I'm extremely disappointed in the team's performance so far and some of that blame certainly does fall on a head coach, but let's look at this realistically: if not Jay, then who? In my opinion, Jay is a perfect fit for LSU baseball and losing a few series in a rebuild year AFTER WINNING A NATTY should not have him anywhere near a hot seat. Have faith. Jay will figure this out even if it takes a year. Firing a coach will not turn this team into title competitors anytime soon.

I think you have to kick the tires on Bruce Bochy
He has a couple of World Series rings

Nobody is wanting the dude fired. Those are people just being frustrated in the moment.

No shite, Sherlock. Nobody seriously wants him fired.

The idiots always feel like their voices need to be heard when tough times come around. They'll be the ones to pretend that they have been the biggest supporters all along when the team turns it around.

Not many people want him fired. We thought we would see more development from the players but it just hasn't happened yet. It still could happen this year but the hitters and pitchers have to get hot very quick or this becomes a rebuilding year. If we don't start winning soon its probably time to get the young guys as much time as possible.
I'm really interested to see who CJJ gets on campus next year. I think he is the man for the job and he will consistently produce good teams. But, it is so hard to win the championship. If's hes not consistent I have no problem moving in a few seasons.

The reality is that Jay is a good coach. The reality is that the 2023 team was absolutely stacked with talent. An average coach could've won a championship with that team. At the end of the day all that matters are results. Jay has bought himself the benefit of the doubt after winning the ship in 23'. But he needs to continue to earn it.

There are always a few yahoos on every message board. Anyone with a brain knows Jay is beyond safe and his seat is cold with those that matter.
He’s got the #1 recruiting class for the next two classes, so he’s working to upgrade the talent. The next two seasons will tell us all a lot on whether or not Jay can manage a program that’s ultra competitive on a consistent year to year basis.

Coach put it plainly on the players shoulders of wheter or not they want to play their best. NO ONE can make them change their attitude or ways. Aftere striking out, some walk back to the dugout like no big deal. JJ had to beg Kling yes he of no hitting to come back. Maybe he should've let him walk. It seems kind of like marriage counseling! Juust because one wants to stay married won't heal the damage. LSU has a world of talent but NO team. Coach must adjust his thinking to play the ones that want to be out there. If you're losing, lose with ones that give a good old college try.

Fire a coach less than a 1/3 through a season following winning the National Championship and see who wants to come here. Good luck. People claiming he should be fired, or he isn't right for the job or the moment, or is over his head are insane and live miserable lives. And he is not on the hot seat this season or next season or the next. If he is then so most of the coaches in the SEC because they also don't win Nattys every season or get to Omaha every season.

In all my time reading the Rant, I've come to learn that a majority of the posters are simple people who have no idea how to manage their personal finances, much less an entire roster.
Anyone calling for CJJ to be fired is actually retarded.

Firing a coach
I'm so tired of the drama queens.
At away LSU games, the opposing teams fans seem friendlier and more educated on the sport.

Especially considering what he’s lost. You can clearly see he’s trying to give experience to his younger talent. This is the process of a good coach trying to figure his team out and letting them develop

Those wanting Johnson fired aren't crazy, they are retarded.

Anyone wanting Johnson fired is certifiable. But there is a glimmer of concern regarding the roster he has put together. Something is really, really amiss with this team. On paper even the most realistic fan would assume a pretty decent, competitive team.
