At any rate gone are the days when a few ole Louisiana boys from places throughout the state told Mom/Dad they would like to go to LSU and play baseball and tryout for a scholarship! No sir…..those days are pretty much over cuz the folks in charge gotta deal through that thing called a portal of which it means the coach can import folks from Timbuckto and Jack-Rabbit Egypt! They don’t give a tinkers damn about LSU or its historical records in baseball or understand how our residents think about past records!

Are you actually dumb enough to think we could recruit mostly LA kids and win a NC in baseball in 2024 and one of the reason why is because those kids grew up fans and know the history of LSU baseball?

Yeah this was an odd statement. The only relevant thing about LSU's history is that it's a known titan in the sport (like Alabama or Ohio State in football, Kansas or Duke in basketball etc). We have a large commitment to the program, so if you come, you should be seeing the best equipment and gear, and coincidentally should get a good NIL deal.
Our climate/weather should be conducive to good playing conditions the entire season, instead of dealing with cold early on.

We've been "importing talent" for a long time, which is why we've been so good. Nobody (with any sense) is offended that Skenes, Crews, White, or Berry, or Bregman etc came here and did well.
