Anyone else have a concern with Verge and his commitment to baseball?

The current "commitment" to baseball in regards to the revenue sharing was not set up by Verge. It was set up by some short fat cocksucker.

But yes, Verge needs to make sure our baseball coach is getting his fair share of the rev sharing pie. We have roughly the same percentage allocation that Tennessee does, and we see how that helped them retain their coach.

LSU Baseball will be just fine. They have plenty of commitment, we just won two nattys in the span of 3-4 years, donors and admin will continue to provide the necessary support to continue this run.

CJJ could have his pay cut…… and he’s going nowhere……nowhere. He knows he’s at the pinnacle. That’s called leverage. And Free enterprise rules the world

We didn't need to kill the portal class like some past years, I swear some of you tards are ridiculous.

Did that have anything to do with why Vitello left? I feel like that's not at all why he left and it's being a little disingenuous to suggest so. Didn't they just pump a bunch of money into a new stadium and other facilities at Tennessee?

Seems it was him wanting to challenge himself rather than anything related to % of profit sharing.

Jay was not happy with the way the revenue sharing was initially set up. That's a fact.

Jay wants more revunue share

Jay wants a new indoor facility

Jay wants this

Jay wants that

Oh yeah, Jay is the highest paid coach in college baseball


Pick your battles. LSU just won 2 of the last 3 national titles. Something tells me LSU baseabll isn't underfunded.

LSU Baseball is NOT underfunded. Not at all. And I have listened to every interview JJ has given for a couple of years now and he has not said nor has he intimated LSU Baseball is underfunded.

LSU Baseball runs a deficit because of our staff salaries and for no other reason. We broke even or maybe had a small surplus when our baseball staff was smaller and less well-paid.

JJ made one public comment about universities having to pick and choose what sports it will fund/emphasize. Some folks are reading too much into that one offhand comment.

As a longtime baseball (and MBB, WBB, Fball) season ticket holder, I want LSU Baseball to flourish and I support a bigger and more well-paid staff for baseball. But baseball in the NCAA is a smalltime sport supported (like LSU does) by very few teams. It will never produce a media package like MBB does and WBB is moving to in 2026-2028.
