Why was there such preseason hype about this baseball team?

Top five rated portal class. Turns out they weren't that good.

You’d be dumb not to know.

This may well turn into the rule rather than the exception with “free agent” teams.
Very little of our sports seem very LSU.

To be fair about this portal class. I don't know how much due diligence could have been done, LSU was in Omaha and kids were signing and committing to teams all around the country if i remember correctly. I remember Dardar committing while we were in Omaha and Jay talking about trying to build next years team and while trying to win a championship and trying to jungle everything.

You saw the hitting the first 2 weeks

The potential is there.

it’s not like we suddenly started facing better teams.

I'm convinced some of the dumbest posters on this site are the ones who watch preseason practice and post here about what they're seeing. They never have any idea what they're looking at. Year after year

Do you not think there's a correlation to playing deep in Omaha and struggling at the top of the portal? Considering it's happened to pretty much every team, every year?

Tenn was getting guys on official visits and in homes while Jay was winning a title.

And Tennessee can't hit this year either. they're hitting .268 as a team and averaging less than 6 runs a game. Their preseason best player, Levi Clark, is hitting .137
