but if she field over .960 with good offense I'm perfectly happy.


Anything will be an upgrade over the last 3 seasons. I just hope she knows how to play the LSU way.

At least we will have quite a few options, Bourg without doubt a stud defensively but Schlattman and Schulte both bring a pretty big bat. I can handle average defense if the offense can put up good numbers.


Taryn will likely snag that last OF spot, should really be a big contributor next season offensively.

I'm very anxious to see how the competition at catcher goes and to see adjustments to our hitters for next sesson


Word is we got some big time recruits visiting in September for the 2020 class, we already have 4 top 50 players for that class already.

And I'm curious to see where the 2018 class ends up, it's already ranked #8 but quite a few of the girls have had pretty impressive summers so we could land in the #6 or #7 spot.

She's a good player for sure and we are fortunate to get her on campus this fall. But what are you basing this "big contributor" on? I keep reading this and I have seen her play a handful of times. She is solid but not the best player we have signed out of Louisiana the last few years. What makes her different?

She really turned it on her senior year, has had a big summer. She changed things up a little bit mechanically and she looks much much better right now.

She was named to the Louisville Slugger Club for a reason. They bring some of the nations best hitters together and it's choosen by a panel of top softball analyst.

Plus when I talked to one of the assistants a few weeks ago, they hinted she likely will be the favorite for the other OF spot.

You think the staff is just not gonna play her because she is a Louisiana player?


Who besides Dawson and Hemphill was better than her?


She's regarded much higher nationally than some of the other players due to her success on the travel ball scenes against elite competition, she's been doing it for years too.

Besides Dawson, she is definitely one of the better prospects to come out Louisiana lately.

There is smoke in the air!!! BOOOM



LSU picked up a BIG commitment today, I was informed this evening. That is all I've been told, there will be an announcement soon from the girl and her family. Zero clue who it could be and what class.




Get the popcorn ready

So why do you even bother to enter a thread that does not interest you? You remind me of the class idiot that tries his hardest to get attention. Just frickin go away.

The assistants are going to quit talking to the boosters if you keep posting what they say. I have buddies in the Gridiron Club and they are sworn to secrecy when Coach O talks to them.

You have great information but you have crossed the line several times. I would be careful because I know there are a lot of people trying to figure out who you are and how you are privy to so much inside information.

I try not to cross a line. I don't mean too.


I just try to give updates on who we are trying to recruit and insight on what is to come in Tiger Park.


Hopefully we will hear soon who the pick up was

Pretty sure Ncaa prohibits all sports from speaking about recruits until they're a certain age. Maybe someone else can provide language to the actual rule. Pretty sure this is why no sport/ coach will ever name recruits who commit. Just look at Coach O -He never says more than Hold That Tiger or baseball staff only posts "Box Bound" pictures

I know of certain players we are recruiting but none have announced they are committing to LSU. The one tonight must be a BIG one considering Beth even tweeted about it.


Guess we will have to wait for the girls to make an announcement. A lot of travel ball stuff right now, maybe it'll be announced really really soon.

I don't think they can talk about them in public until they are signed. After signing day they are allowed to mention their names.

So one of the commits is Sydney Peterson, an infielder for the 2021 class.

She plays for Lady Magic travel team in Cali. Already has a lot of major offers.


She was just on a recruiting visit at Washington last week and was offered!

Working on the second commit

I agree with Imperial... when you come on here and say a coach said or hinted something, that's crossing the line in my book. I think when you do say something that someone told you, you might want to reword how you say it so it doesn't look that a coach told you. I talk to college coaches (not just ours) all of the time and I don't talk about our/their players or playing time. That's why coaches come to my clinic because they know what's said between us, stays between us and I definitely don't talk to our coaches about our past, current, and future players, playing time, or strategies and I definitely don't post what I hear on this forum for sure.

But as I said before, you give a lot of good information... just have to be a lot more careful so you don't cross the line into privacy issues.

Anyone ever figure out the second commit?

A few girls we are recruiting won't make their decisions until October/November.
