If all of those teams jumped off a bridge, are you saying it would be ok for LSU to jump off that same bridge?

Dude, eat a dick.

Nobody is saying it’s ok. It is a valid observation worth pondering. It’s a conversation starter.

Can we agree that statistical observation seems like an improbable event? If yes, contribute.

Why do you think that improbable event has happened?

So, please explain your point. My understanding is EVERY team has the same “window” for transfers, so is the issue talent evaluation, or is it player evaluation?

See below. Not every team is afforded the same time to recruit the portal.
quote:

The portal opened on June 2.

LSU was playing games until June 23, with 13 of those days (June 10-June 23) being in Omaha.

The Draft Combine is June 13-17.

Then the draft is July 13-15.

It's not like football where you can host guys for weeks and weeks while still playing in the post season. Guys you want are likely playing the first weekend. That leaves you with about 5 days to really talk to guys between game/travel schedule prior to Omaha.

Then imagine if you're looking at a guy playing on the second weekend (16 teams). You get what, a day with them before Omaha? If everything lines up perfectly?

Teams that sit at home should not get a 10 day head start to recruit players because they faltered.
All of those teams also know more about who's leaving their program, who's leaning which way in the draft, etc.

Every team isn’t at the college World Series every coach doesn’t have to deal with coaching a team through the college World Series the. Having to recruit players at the same time ! When you are focused on winning it all vs getting some portal guys which one are you going to focus on more ? It’s a no branier winning a championship!
