re: So we still getting out bid in the baseball portal…

I don’t think it’s that they think we have more money than everyone else, yet we lose battles. I think people are saying we need to put more money into the baseball program than we are with how today’s world of college sports works. It is objectively true that teams like State, Texas, and A&M are spending a good chunk more than we are on the baseball programs. I don’t disagree with anything you’re saying though, people need to realize LSU can’t land every single target.

I completely agree, which is why I think it’s hilarious they are being this butthurt and petty over LSU not offering him out of high school when no other big name school did either. I’m fine with him going to Tennessee for how much they overpaid, him and his family seem like a good fit for that culture.

Exactly why would we over pay for that dude with his injury. Tennessee is fricking retarded.

Missing out on some big prospects right now to opposing sec schools.

We are the Gold Standard for SEC Baseball but are Mid to Bottom of the SEC in $$ available. Inexcusable!

Maybe kids saw the questionable in-game adjustments that lead to multiple “up 7-2 only to lose 13-9” losses and decided to look elsewhere?

Maybe he read Tigerdroppings and saw a post by Meauxjeaux and took it all LSU fans are too stupid to commit there.
You’re fricking harping on something that is completely had ZERO to do with this. Questionable calls my arse.
Execution by pitchers that PROVED the previous playoffs they could execute is what ended up costing games. We we ask why? GO THE frick BACK TO WEEKEND ONE AND MOORE’S INJURY. Read EVERYTHING he said about it.
READ EVERYTHING FROM CURIEL, STANFIELD, EVANS. Are you that dense? What the frick happened to you? You think those players are not worth 4 fricking games considering their roles? 4 games is what was needed to be in the tournament and Johnson had to basically sacrifice the last weekend in an effort to try to win the SEC tournament.

I would rather believe a coach that has proven himself twice over than even his predecessor like retards on here.

get what many here are saying about this recruit. Im just trying to understand this.

LSU offered?
Tenner offered more than LSU did regardless of reason(s). So he commited to Tenner?

Some are saying he isnt good enough or he had TJ. Well others have gone to LSU where a chance was taken because of reasons above. Also if anyone is talking about talent evaluation and the kid not being good enough, well, we can all name several failed expectations from many past players. So I say this. Why isnt he worthy to be at LSU based on his recent success but he is going to another top shelf SEC school and commited to Tenner now? Another SEC school wanted him badly enough that they out recruited LSU and got a kid that literally lived an hr from the Box. South Louisiana loves and supports LSU. On principal alone there is no way I let Tenner beat me out for a kid that lives in my back yard. I mean seriously, is the kid not good enough? If anyone says no then what about every smaller school player that JJ brought here through the portal and was successful? We can name a few over the last 5yrs. Is it true his dad hates LSU? I doubt that.

On a side note, I know Shane personally and he is a good guy. He coached Cam Sanders at ED White who went to LSU, so i know for a fact he has had dealings with LSU before. Before anyone says shite, nobody is perfect. I knew/know him as a hs coach and as a person for many years now. For them to pass up LSU, there had to be an actual valid reason. Money alone couldn't have been the only reason unless it was a staggering difference. To allow Tenner to take a kid in your back yard is wild. Jmo.

Maybe money was never the problem and that was yet another false narrative TD created
