Say what you want, argue however you feel like, but one thing will remain true...

These LSU Tigers are no longer a scary team. If we won the last two games, it would have been nice but it still would have been ugly against an Auburn team that should finish the season in the bottom 3 of the SEC.

I was a big CPM fan, but no more. This is not a melt down, just a reality check for all LSU fans. CPM is not the answer anymore, he had 2 chances to call on the suicide squeeze to get a run in and all he did was allow to hitters to swing away and hit into DP.

Hell, if Katz doesn't make a diving catch, this game was over in 9.

Something needs to change, I am tired of watching this team play at a mediocre level for 3 straight seasons.

We aren't very good.

The fact that we have this good of pitching and we'll probably be a bubble team for the NCAA Tournament again is a joke.

Even if we win the next 15 games in a row, this team needs something new. It is becoming boring to watch us lose or BARELY win these flipping games.

It is even worse when we drop 15 runs on St Francis School of the Blind on Tuesday but can't score more than 5 runs in two games??

He needs to be fired. This team is by far very average. I look at this team and see no reason for anyone to be intimidated.

Intimidated is the word du jour my friend! We scare no one anymore.

Paul is a total prima donna as well, from what I've heard.

Can't do anything for himself. Apparently he's too good for that.

We have championship caliber starting pitching. These hitters are a joke.

Whose fault is that? We should be able to recruit whoever we want.

Our coaching staff sucks.

And recruiting? HAHAHA

We can get good pitching, no problem. Hitting, not so much.

What happens next season when Gausman, Rhymes, Nola, and Hanover roll out?

Alleva is Not going to fire PM, period. Best case scenario, Alleva forces PM to fire Javi. The sooner you realize that, the easier this season will be on you.

1-9, this is the least talented LSU baseball offense I remember since before Skip was coaching. They simply have no offensive talent.

Just solid and consistent hitting would be nice, it doesnt have to be elite or freaking gorilla ball.

This is the best overall pitching,from the starters the bullpen that we have had in a long time, and all they get rewarded with is no run support.

This is freaking LSU baseball, mediocrity should not be an option, but apparently it is now.

This is the dumbest arguement I've ever heard...

LSU recruits as well as anyone in the nation, but as always MLB signing bonuses > NCAA and their is nothing you can change about that.

Early in PM's career at LSU he got lucky with the draft, that's all it takes...

Just an opinion, but you think PM was overconfident by standing pat on the hitters and think he could win just with pitching?

When you build 40MM stadiums, mediocrity won't be tolerated for long.
