Right after the first week of the season, I spoke to our daughters gymnastics instructor (ex LSU gymnast) about this very issue and she said that college scoring is alot different that elite level scoring. Judges allow the bouncing into the next move bc they want fan enjoyment. She said college scoring compared to junior olympic scoring is worlds apart from how critical each subtle wrong move is deducted.
And when I asked why LSU hasnt used that to their advantage, she said that LSU doesn’t recruit girls that fit that type of routine.



It has nothing to do with the recruits, all of them can do stag jumps and other leaps out passes. LSU just doesn't incorporate that into their floor routines.

Its all incorporation of skills into routines and how they choreograph
