Thanks. This thread is the only place I've seen anything about it. Seems odd that he meets with the press but not a mention of it on their website.

I do enjoy that they post most of his post-game press conferences during the season as well.

It looks like they're running the PC on SECN+ on the ESPN app.

Not sure how this affects the availability on youtube, both live and the Tigerbait post.

If it limits the availability, that's bullshite. I know most everyone will still be able to access it. But it's very much an increase in the degree of pain in the arse it is to access it on the ESPN app vs the YouTube app.

LSU's tweet lists links to both their YouTube and Facebook page for it.

Thank you. I didn't check the links, only read where they mentioned SECN+.

I'm just so used to constant enshitification that I assumed it was yet another thing being paywalled.

Roster is up

Dalton Beck is on staff, looks like Nippolt has moved on

Jordan Martinez listed as infield and RHP. I thought that might be a possibility.

ETA: In what is almost assuredly a consequence of the ABS system, Omar Serna has shrunk by 2 inches. He was listed at 6'2" last year and 6' this year.

Champ Artigues doesn't appear to be on staff anymore either. Jonathan Schmidt gets promoted to Ops director.

Seeing most of the baseball guys in person, it’s funny how over exaggerated their heights are despite it really not mattering. A catcher being 6’ instead of 6’2 is kind of irrelevant lol

Cliffs? I already pay too much for D1 (amongst a million other subscriptions) and this is where I have drawn my imaginary line

Some notes from scrolling twitter (from Scone, InsideLSUBasebball, Tigers On Deck, Glen West, Trip Buhler)

- Washington has been moved to the IF

- Ruckert getting reps at Catcher (not sure who called that, but someone did)

- Nawrocki will be a two way guy for "all three years"

- Moore will not pitch in the fall but that "shouldn't impact anything in the spring"

- Cooper Schmidt hasn't pitched since the early summer as he was gearing up for minor league ball. Had to wind down and his first outing will be the Sunday scrimmage in October. Will pitch the next 4 Sundays.

- William Schmidt put on some good weight. Both his and Evans' workout plans went according to plan

- Infield defense will be a strength.

Sorry about that. It let me read the entire article on my phone so I assumed it was a free article.

A few notes from it:
All coaches would like the MLB draft to be sooner than it is.
They want to roll out ABS but want to make it'd done right and consistently across all of college baseball.
Are looking into adopting the bigger bases that MLB uses, but are concerned about it only being used in conference games,
Split on the other rules such as limiting pickoff attempts, making pitchers face a minimum number of hitters.

I think this is generally the problem with all of these major rule changes in college baseball. The sport is spread so incredibly thin that you simply cannot implement all of the changes nation wide.

I hate the idea of this rule for college baseball. These guys are not pros. You roster 40 fricking guys and should be allowed to replace one after one pitch if you so choose.

Needs to happen. Make it the week before the CWS. The live draft show has failed miserably anyway.

For real?
Was anybody expecting that or am I out of the loop?

The fall is for experimentation especially in finding a spot on the field for such a talent. Nothing is permanent.

Mentioned Moore put on some weight too. Found it interesting he mentioned that Cade and Serna need to get better defensively behind the plate.

Coach said that Washington has the potential to be a great CF but he wants to see how he does in the IF. To give him added potential in the biggs, Nothing is permanent as he is no wheres close out possible lineups.

I did notice that he singled out 6 players who he said are there at the facility working all the time: Watters, Laya, Washington, Santarelli, Nawrocki and Braun
