Torina is a good enough coach for a non revenue sport.



and there it is people. we should accept this since 2017 because it is a NON revenue sport. dumb.

meanwhile track and field and womens baslketball lose WAY more $$$$$ than softball.


no need to make a commitment to be ELITE right? you just proved my points yet again.

If LSU feels like you then blow it up. cut the program down to the bone.

save $$$. let her walk.

don't wanna win big then let's save money. blow up all those other non revenue sports also. Keep them all on a bare minimum budget just to fulfill title IX.

let football and mens basketball keep making $$$. put every dine into these 2 sports moving forward. cut the rest down to the bone.

no half assing. you are either all the way in or all the way out.

Seems a lot of people want Beth fired. So who are you going to get?

It would be asinine to lay a buyout in softball to a coach who made supers

Don’t extend her. She can finish contract or walk.

The money is not endless especially for a non revenue sport that loses money.
LSU is heavily invested in Baseball and Women’s Hoops besides the 2 big revenue generators in football and men’s hoops. There is simply not enough money to pour more into softball bc you aren’t pulling any away from the others right now.
Torina and the program are fine given what I just said.
You aren’t going to get a big name coach unless you pony up and lsu isn’t going to do that for softball right now.
They’ll probably just let Beth’s contract run out and then reevaluate.

You sound mad. Too mad for a defense of a sport nobody cares about. When can I expect your swimming rant?

It’s softball. They have a winning record and make the post season pretty much every year. That’s all they need to be.

weak argument. Revenue or non revenue, its still a part of LSU sports branding and College Women's Softball is gaining steam year after year with some nice tv ratings. The games are enjoyable to watch and here we are talking about softball more and more each year.

show me where i said that in this thread.

right. either we are going to be all in or all out. no half assing. she has been here sine 2012 and are we where we want to be now? how much more time does she need? she has had 14 years. she blew a 4 year window.

anyone answering honestly will say NO. pumptards are spinning the same shite since 2017 like they did with miles for years. look at recruits, winning record, post season bowl, etc. are we competing for titles? Can we not do better? shite i bet we can get these results for way less money spent.

take the sport seriously and make a commitment to get to the next level or cut all down to the bone and throw all $$ at football and basketball. the 2 bread winners.

why even piss money away then? it loses $$ anyway. do it right or not at all.

Yes, it is. We already spend enough money on sports that don't produce revenue.
