Women are carrying LSU sports right now!

Thank goodness for women sports. With the exception of football, the LSU women are showing out and clearly carrying the banner for LSU sports. The baseball team is collapsing right before our eyes and the men's basketball team is still trying to recover from the WW debacle.
Who would have ever thought that LSU women sports would be the talk of the town, but that appears to be the case. The gymnastics and softball team are knocking it out of the park and the basketball team just made it to the Elite 8. Oh yeah, last night Reese was drafted in the first round of the WNBA draft, going No. 7 to the Chicago Sky.
I know many of you do not like women sports, but I enjoy it because, like it or not, these girls are extremely talented athletes and fun to watch. When is the last time you could name the starting five on the women's team, know the name of their head coach and her coaching history. In gymnastics, the team is now attracting sell out crowds because of their success. Away from the mat, gymnastics Livvy Dunne is also currently the highest paid female athlete based on NIL deals. In softball, coach Torina is doing her best coaching job and has the Lady Tigers sitting at No. 6 in the country.
While the men may be struggling, it's still a great time to be a Tiger!
Let's hope the men's teams can get their teams turned around and back into contention for conference and national titles!

The women’s sports programs at LSU are superior to any other programs in the country with the only competition being OU. Just need to start producing championships.

We've had a Heisman winner and a baseball national championship within the past year. Pretty sure every other school's fan base would be thrilled if THAT was considered disappointing for the men's programs (except maybe by Alabama fans until they get a few seasons to bring their expectations back down to earth post-Saban).
Pretty sure LSU women's basketball, softball, gymnastics, and track teams have all been highly ranked nationally on a consistent basis for just about all of my adult life. So its not like the LSU women having success is something new.

Livvy Dunne doesn't even perform in most meets...

Not really. Softball is entrenched in 5/6th place in the conference as per usual. They have lost series to the lower level/bottom dwelling teams in the conference. Two of those series at home! It is baffling how with all the resources, facilities, and top recruits that sign annually that we have not finished in the top 5 in the conference since 2019 and the current coach has never won the conference even with the WCWS teams.

Except in the most important area, money.

LOL which women's team does your kid play on? That's the only way you could think a dumbass take like this is relevant.

As an LSU sports fan, I celebrate everything Tigers. Don’t mistake recency bias success with the overall impact of all the traditional popular winning LSU sports teams.

Livvy helps obviously but the womens gymnastics team started gaining popularity before Livvy.
I'm a fan of Livvy, but people aren't buying tickets to watch Livvy not even compete (which is what happens half the time), they are watching the #2 team in the country.
