It was 1969.

Nixon was president. The 747 made its debut. The average cost of a home was $15,500. The precursor to the internet called ARPANET sent its first communication from UCLA to Stanford. The Montreal Expos had their first game ever. Sesame Street debuts in PBS.

Mainieri talks so much shite about him not taking baseball seriously enough. How’s that work out Paul?

He was full time football equipment manager and part time baseball coach.
They practiced football in the OF and parked cars on the OF grass during football games. The OF fence was a moveable picket fence. No one cared about baseball then.

Don't worry Paul will talk about how classless Vandy is to relieve some of the pressure he is getting

Mikey Hollander will be a Marshall at the masters.

I guess they don’t take fielding percentage into account when picking them.

He was well rounded.

. Jim Smith (c. 1931 – January 17, 2001) was the head baseball coach of the LSU Tigers baseball team from 1966 to 1978.[1] Through 13 seasons in this role, he coached in 489 games, winning 238 and losing 251 for a .487 winning percentage.[2] He finished with a 102–136–0 (.429) SEC record. His 1975 Tigers team compiled a 40–16 record, winning the Southeastern Conference (SEC) title with a 19–3 record and reaching the NCAA playoffs for the first time.[3] He was also equipment supervisor for the LSU Tigers football team from 1960 to 1981.[4] Smith was fired as LSU's baseball coach in 1978 after three straight losing seasons,[5] and later worked as a deputy for East Baton Rouge Parish in Louisiana.[4]
