That's how I got my tickets. Low attendants. Empty seats speaks loudly.

How did LSU baseball drop so far?

I always wondered whether Smoke was fired a bit prematurely.

It would’ve been reasonable to say that LSU football would’ve taken a nosedive in 2018 if Ed O were fired in 2017 and look at how that turned out.
Have no idea where that came from, and has nothing to do with this conversation.

This isn’t football. “Top heavy” doesn’t matter because LSU isn’t losing to the bottom teams either way and they’re not getting physically shredded over the course of the season because they can’t pull the starters in the 3rd quarter. It’s baseball. There have always been 4-5 or more elite teams in the SEC for us to compete with for our ultimate goal of winning the CWS
Nevermind, clearly you dont know what the frick you are talking about

The HC lost focus, he list his drive. He look inward for assistants. Recruiting suffered at a time when others got serious about baseball.

In 2007 Vanderbilt was the #1 seed nationally and Arkansas was the #7 seed. Ole Miss, State and South Carolina all made the field and the SEC was 3rd nationally in bids without LSU making it. State made the CWS, UGA played for the natty the very next year then we won the next then South Carolina won the next 2. I dunno how you can say the SEC was weak or top heavy during this period?

You just referenced a year that Mainieri was coach, thanks for furthering my point. Im talking about the period of time when Smoke was coach

Back when Smoke was coaching, I don’t recall Vanderbilt, Ole Miss or Arkansas being formidable opponents.
LSU was in a league by itself for many seasons throughout the 90s and early 2000s.
LSU isn’t the same and there’s a lot more talent and well coached teams throughout the country.

The year prior the SEC led the nation with 8 bids, with Alabama as the #4 seed nationally, UGA as the #7 and Ole Miss as the SEC Champ. The year before that the SEC led the nation with 9 bids with Ole Miss as the #5 overall and Florida #7. Tennessee and Florida made the CWS with Florida playing for the tile. Again how was the SEC weak and top heavy?

Show me where recruiting suffered.

Arkansas was consistently a national seed during Smoke’s era, Ole Miss was in the tourney pretty much every year, UGA was a national seed one year and played in the title game another, same goes for Florida. Miss St. was in the CWS and the tourney. Tennessee made the CWS. Bama was a national seed one year #4 overall. Vandy was the number 1 overall seed and a national power during that time also riding future MLB stars like #1 overall pick David Price and Pedro Alvarez. Dunno where you guys are coming up with this fantasy when the data is easily available.

LOL wut?
Arkansas was a national seed once from 2002-2006.

Arkansas #8 overall seed in 2004, #7 overall seed in 2007. You can LOL all you want but you’ve been 100% wrong on everything. You didn’t know what you were talking about you just made up a narrative totally devoid of facts.

2007 isn't Smoke's era.
Even if I grant you 2007... two years out of six is by no means consistent.
By that logic, Paul has made LSU a consistent national seed since 2016.

And now the typical selective qualifiers that only distract from the facts and deflect from you being totally incorrect.

Selected qualifiers?
2002 to 2006 is "Smoke's era", Arkansas was only a national seed once in that span. You're the one literally setting the parameters.

Stop your spinning. Your statement was that the SEC was weak and top heavy during Smoke’s era and that was unquestionably false and proven so. You don’t wanna own up to that so now you’re looking for little loopholes to crawl in and change the topic with. This kind of behavior is beneath you.

So you’d have everyone believe that the 07 Arkansas team was nothing but true freshman?
