Is time running out on Beth?

I’m as critical as they come but how was it a bad loss? Top 25 team on the road and lose by 1in the 11th doesn’t qualify as a bad loss. In fact, every game they have loss is to a top 25 team per the broadcast last night, zero bad losses! The fact is the two players that they counted on haven’t performed to the level or close to the level they expected. The other issue, all but one of the top averages are transfers or a kid that walked on, the recruiting was horrific under Leftwich and it’s showing now. Three of the top 4 pitchers are transfers, a program rises or falls on recruiting not development and LSU is struggling because of poor recruiting and the lack of production from the two AA players. Actually , softball and baseball are very similar THIS yr, the transfers in baseball have for the most part haven’t performed at the level as players that transferred in previously, the portal is a 50/50 crap shoot

Time ran out on Beth five years ago. But rest assured, nothing will happen until her contract is up and maybe not even then. Don’t be surprised if she is renewed.

Does anyone know when her contract is up?

I see a lot of fundamental flaws in this team and the teams of the past. LSU is a flagship university and will always attract talent. I feel that it’s obvious that she lacks some coaching acumen and hasn’t shown the ability to improve in many areas. I see her team not hit the cutoff player on a play to home where it’s obvious there is no play at the plate, allowing the runner to move to second and get into scoring position. I have seen her leave pitchers in longer than she needs to. I have seen outfielders take poor routes to balls in the air. This just seems to be a poorly coached team and I have felt that way with teams of the past. I just feel like teams in the past had more talent and her lack of coaching skills were hidden by the teams overall talent.

Im sure they practice cuts and relays , every team does, agree about leaving pitchers in too long, usually takes them out 1 inning too late. What seems to be lacking in the program is consequences, the same players that don’t produce and make critical mistakes still go out there the next day. What that tells me is either the players run the show or there is no one else, either is really really bad

most argue she shoulda been fired 2 or 3 years ago. LSU gives zero fricks about softball anymore.

Is someone wanting to pay her off?? Is someone wanting to pony up for a bigger name coach?? Does enough people GAF ?? She’s here as long as she wants to be ….

She needs to go.

huge fall off from 2017. if you cannot win it all with hoover and allie for 3 years idk what to tell you. had some greats in bell, jaquish, landry, andrews. nothing to show for it.

she is a good coach and she wins...... just not what fans expect for getting paid well over 400k a damn year! div 1 ball is tough and SEC is real tough. We know. WE get it. that is no excuse when you make that much.

never won SEC or SEC tourney. LSu put money into some facilities but they do not seem to care about excellence in other areas.

IF LSU wants to win BIg they need to invest BIG in the program. see lane kiffin and the NIL budget. simple as that. she's done nothing lately. this guy has. This year will make 9 years straight with no WCWS appearance. With the mens BB issues all this shite gets pushed to the back burner and buys her more time. softball makes no money anyway. Only football and mens BB do. I do not think she is going anywhere. LSU does not care.
