Without a new pool complex swimming has no chance to recruit. That pool was built in mid 80’s. They have done a few things to update deck and put in locker rooms but can’t recruit when pool and facility’s suck.
New coach can’t recruit without nice facility

I agree the LSU Nat pool is old and outdated. However, This is ALL about DAVE GEYER being a Horrible coach. He has been at LSU for 14-15 years and Head coach for 10 or 11 years! When you come in last or at the bottom of SEC EVERY year there is no more excuses. The reason that they are not dead last in mens and womens swimming consistently EVERY YEAR is because of diving and Dave Geyer doesnt even coach diving.
Dave Geyer has run out of excuses. Look at gymnastics where DD Breaux started with less than ZERO and she has built one of the Best programs. People want to get behind a winner and then facilities follow. Now is the time to start fresh. Get rid of Geyer and the losing mentality. Geyer does nothing to build and promote the sport in Louisiana. I cant count on ONE hand how many times I read about LSU swimming in the paper or on the news. We cant get worse than Geyer and LSU needs to start somewhere. Getting rid of Geyer is first step.

Bingo ! Until LSU makes a real commitment to swimming they will not compete for championships. Their facility isn’t worthy of an SEC swim team. You can bet that LSU admin knows this. They have chosen where they will spend money first and swimming is literally last on the list. Everyone associated with the program knows this.

The LSU gymnastics coach recruited the best in the country with the worst facility in the nation. The diving coach consistently recruits top divers in the nation with the same facility as the swim team. Coach has got to go. He is lucky the athletic department doesn’t give a sh— about swimming.
