Who did Jay really want in the portal, but didn’t have the $$ for?

He got who he wanted. There wasn't many big names in the portal this year. A few flirted but stayed put, others followed their coach from one place to another. Jay stated he felt good with what we already had in place returning and wanted to fill in the roster with the right guys that fit. So far its not working.

You’re right.

Let’s make the baseball program split 5% with the Olympic sports.

If there were ever a time to use Lane’s “it’s different”, it would be how LSU baseball should be treated in the dividing up of revenue share compared to other schools.

Baseball here has a special place and should be treated as such.

Omar Serna got paid a ton of money to be here. He isn’t good.

Yorke got paid a bunch of money to be here. He can’t throw a ball 90 feet to home plate.

Caraway got paid over 100k to be here, he looks like my 5 year old hitting an offspeed pitch.

You want me to keep going?

Not an excuse for McMahon, not an excuse for Johnson.

Serna is a freshman. He will be good.

Yorke has like the 3rd highest average and on base percentage among the starters. He can throw the ball 90 feet. It was an off balance throw due to the the trampoline bounce from the turf

Caraway was a mistake

Yeah, keep going

Great. In this NIL era I don’t care if you’re a freshman, he’s paid like a top 5 player on the team. You wouldn’t know anything about that.

Casan Evans is being paid as much as a starter on the football team, he can’t make it out of the 4th inning in an SEC start.

Don’t act like you have any clue what’s going on.

Jay made some bad choices, can't win it all every year but this is bad.
Wonder if they will pack the box. Not the paid, but real attendance

I know plenty

You still have to take some freshmen, even in NIL era. Serna wouldn't be as big of an issue if Bide would step up and be a true number 1 catcher

Evans was awesome last year. Yeah he isn't adjusting to being a starter

Caraway sucked last year. He just had a really good post season.
