Jay Johnson’s teams with errors

So I was not able to find anything further back than last year but Arizona was ranked 196th in errors made per game. I’m assuming that wasn’t a one off though. Maybe somebody else could find the rest of the data on a paid site. Currently lsu is around 250th in errors made. Is this just a problem Jay Johnson teams will always have? What could be the reason that this happens?

Larger emphasis on hitting as opposed to fielding = not enough high quality reps.

Thanks. Yeah so this seems to be a consistent issue and something we should expect won’t change unfortunately.

I went in and updated. lsupride's numbers. Anything in bold was added to his original post.
As we can see, JJ's defense leaves a shite ton to be desired. It will keep biting us in the arse no matter how many years he gets here. 22% of his coaching career, he has had a good to very good defense. That is atrocious

Errors were an issue last year as well. I don't think this is inherently a JJ problem as it sits today. Time will tell.

Idk if that is exactly a transitory stat to be fair. Also, he's got essentially the same roster as last year. Those players aren't just going to get magically better defensively by bringing in a new coach.

Currently we are the girl, we need to strive to be the dog.

No, but they aren't going to magically become 10x worse either. Unless that coach does not put enough emphasis on defense.
