Jerk the ball? Never heard this expression before?? Pop flies have more to do with pulling the front shoulder and and getting the barrel under the ball, also has to do with pitch movement as well.

Send over an email to Jay and the athletic department, I'm sure they'd love to bring your expertise on board.

Do you mean "pull" the ball?

So that's the secret to leading the conference in doubles?

You got down voted because people here on the rant are ALL D1 coaches bro and your opinions are doo doo.

Surely not one of LSU's players in the line up are "all pull hitters" and get pitched away especially offspeed. Surely none of them let their rear shoulder follow their top hand in their swings to pop up(hit fly balls) over and over. What in the hell are you talking about bro.

The Braswell golf swing is starting to rub off on the entire lineup.

he means fly balls...

Not enough line drives and ground balls thru the infield.

I truly believe they were trying to smash the ball in that tiny park

None of that has to do with jerking the ball. This team goes opposite field as much as any of Jay's teams seem to have in the 4 years he has been here. I think the issue has simply been swinging under high pitches They are pressing.a lot right now and swinging at bad pitches in general, I think.

I can tell you have never played baseball a day in your life. I hate to be a jersey but you should not be allowed to make comments about baseball. I'm in shock that you actually hit the post button. Jerk the ball causing pop Flys is just funny because your not trying to troll your dead serious.
