WE have no power on our team, just popcorn hitters. Wish we had a slugger or two and the pitching seems weak. Some people say Beth is a good recruiter, but this year it seems lame.

Bergeron having a terrible year. She's basically the team summary in a nut shell

They are a direct reflection of Torina.
No fire, no desire, always goofing off, and always making dumbass mistakes.

Micaela Wark for A&M was being recruited this past portal and then Torina and the staff just ghosted her.

She signed with the Aggies and now has 10 HRs and 34 RBI.

Torina should have been canned at least two years ago.

and none of these comments make any difference to the coaches or players. This team is in bubble wrap completely isolated from the public. THEY DON'T SEEM TO CARE that there are people that want to see them do well and win games and compete for championships. They act like they really don't care about any of us

Ain’t got no money to spend on softball. 300 people give a shite. Free enterprise rules apply.

It's really sad how Beth Torrino skates by year after miserable year with nothing to show. Her eye for talent is completely blind. If mediocrity is your goal, just keep rooting for Beth...otherwise, it's way past time!
LET HER GO!

you mean like all those years we had tards here saying " we need a new OC" every year? we knew who the common denominator was then also.

You are sooo right. Take a look at the size, strength and power of Oklahoma. They are big, strong athletes. They do not build their roster around small, fast slappers.

Yeah I kind of agree. It sucks though because we’re likely never going to find a coach as hot as her ever again.

Beth is a great person. Been dealing with her and many of her players since 2012 with both my girls like i am sure many others have as well. I'm really hesitant to criticize softball coaches(all others are fair game) for many reasons similar to what 18 handicap stated previously. But it is past time for new blood in the program. We seem stuck in the mud.

She wins. She just is not winning to what we expect for her pay and resources she has access to.

It's time. It appears we have gotten all the juice we can out this squeeze since 2012. She makes big money. Most softball coaches make nothing to very little and volunteer their precious time. She would have been fired years ago in the private sector for these failures on this level. Simply unacceptable for the money put into these facilities and that ballpark.

Sadly i am not sure LSU cares enough about this sport. I am a long time season ticket holder and will be contacting verge dingleberry and the president about a change soon.

beth has never won the SEC regular season or tourney. here are some stats.

I remember the comparisons to Hemphill from STM that went to Alabama. LSU passed on her and she ended up being the all time HR and RBI leader at Alabama.

Then why hasn't he been to BR this season? He's been to Clearwater and Knoxville where games have been on national TV. I'm surprised he's not in BR this weekend since 2 of the games are on SEC network nationwide.
