How many do you think we were juicing?


No one. They just wore tighter jerseys.

If they were, so was everyone else. Even playing field.

My cousin played in late 90s and he said it was common for everyone to so it at some point. No different than MLB.

I knew quite a few that were really into juicing, mostly carrot with cucumber, but a few were more into straight fruit...

Creatine is what all college players were using back then. That was the main supplement that I don't believe is sold over the counter anymore. You could get it at any local health store in the mall. Some were obviously on other types of steroids but creatine is what LSU kept in the locker room just like every other school. The bats made it easy to hit with power too.


You may be talking about prohormones, but creatine is still widely available everywhere. It's not a banned supplement.

I'm sure it's possible that some were, but I seriously doubt ALL of them were.
Heavy weight training and a heavy diet produce great results with athletes.
Many of those big power hitters aren't getting recruited anymore since the bat changes, tho.
The position players recruited now are favored for their defense, and many can be used at different positions.

Prohormones are still widely available. Not sure why you all are saying these things are banned?

Creatine is not illegal, and never was.

Creatine is most definitely sold over the counter at every single nutrition store on the planet. Even sold over the counter at basic grocery stores like HEB.

You must have creatine badly confused with something else like Andro or Steroids, because college baseball players abused the frick out of steroids in the 90's.

Because they are banned, at least by NCAA standards which I believe is what we are discussing You can buy them at the store, but that doesn't mean they are legal to use in the NCAA.

Dude

You're just completely talking out of your arse. Creatine is just a run of the mill supplement. You can buy it at Walmart, gnc, online etc

All it does is retain more water in your muscles making you look a little bigger and allows you to lift probably a tad bit more. It's not even comparable to something performance enhancing.

Supplements have changed as the rules and markets have changed. Taking vitamins and supplements is like mixing nitrogen into the water you pour on your houseplants. Sometimes it makes you look and feel a little better. However, you still have to be able to put the bat on the ball and know what to do in the field. The real knowledge and skill required comes about through thousands of hours of repetition, not from a bottle full of something made in a lab.

As for any players doing illegal PED, I've never heard anything credible.

yeah I was going to say creatine is still very legal. They were probably on something like andro which was legal up until close to 2000.
