I have literally said 'we'll see' several times in this thread and others

I like the depth and tools on this LSU team. I don't believe we have any superstars but a some with potential.

I also happen to think the power will come with this team, with the chance for several from the 1-7 in the order to hit double-digit HRs. Nobody else seems to think that's going to happen.

But will it happen? It didn't last year. Without proven stars you don't know what to expect

I've been pretty clear. The most coveted and highly recruited kids out of the portal the last couple of years have not signed with Jay

And you'd be wrong, he landed Daniel Dickinson who was easily one of the top players in the portal this last cycle. He was an all-american.

You also dont land the #1 portal class but not signing guys a bunch of other teams would want.

He also landed Luke Holman last portal class, how on earth was that not a top land?

it’s also disingenuous to act like Dickinson was a leftover with no options.

same with Eyanson


Agree I'm not saying teams didn't want them

And considering the amount of time Tony spent with Holman's agent in Omaha, it's impossible to argue Tennessee didn't want him.

Oh now we can't get them all


I have said multiple times that the key is getting the elite / difference makers

It seems pretty clear that the teams winning big now are the ones who can recruit top players out of HS and then supplement with true difference makers in the portal

Look at the CWS Finals last year. Those were the clear-cut 2 best teams in college baseball nearly the entire season from start to finish

LSU just won it all in 2023 . and we are getting difference makers as well. Every post you make is dumber and dumber.

Answer honestly. Are you really this dumb? Or is this all a big troll?

I find it hard to believe somebody could be just half as dumb as you appear to be.

Dickinson has 21 RBI
Kilen has 17

Why is Kilen already a difference maker but Dickinson is a wait and see guy?


I like Dickinson, he's pull happy but barrels up more balls than anyone on the team

We wanted Kilen and Tony beat Jay for him. So we settled for Dickinson. Let's see how it works out.

Speaking of dishonest commentary.

Dickinson wasn't in the portal when Kilen committed.

And Tennessee still went after Dickinson.

Your retort to us winning a battle against Tennessee is to throw out the name of a guy who agent would not let him consider SEC teams?

But you said we got outbid. If we got outbid, having anything to sell doesn't matter. Only the money matters.

Why do you keep changing your answer on this?
