I’d like to see a citation on this, rev share is capped for every university this year at $20.5 million and I’ve read that 15 of 16 SEC schools are using the widely discussed 75/15/5/5 distribution model, with MSU being an exception. That would mean 15 of 16 SEC schools have the same player revenue share, including LSU.

you are correct but that last 5 is not going strictly to baseball

that is split between Baseball, Softball, Tennis, Golf, Track and Field, Gymnastics, Swimming etc.

now baseball is getting a lot of that but not all.

now direct quotes from Jay himself

"The rules have literally changed every single year in some way, shape or form with that. I'm very thankful for the people that have contributed to LSU baseball. You can't survive without them," Johnson said. "But with the rule changes with NIL, with revenue sharing, it's a different issue now. It's important that LSU continues to make baseball a priority and continues to invest on that side of revenue sharing. It's a little bit more like the big leagues. Do you want to be the Dodgers or do you want to be a small market team? Schools are going to decide what kind of sports that they want to be good in."

"I think one thing that in this new landscape that helps us a little bit is this stadium's full capacity. You know 500,000 people come through it on a yearly basis. So. The players have a marketing value, there's actually a marketing value to them. They have the highest social media following on all the platforms," Johnson said.

"My hope is that the people and the school continue to give us the chance to be successful."

[b]Johnson noted that other programs are choosing to be "all in" on baseball funding, and he explicitly stated, "We need to be one of those schools. We're not there yet[/b]".

from AI talking about it





not fully funding the 34 and continuing to fund more sports than other schools out of the 5% is the main thing i am talking about.

Any 2028, 2029 and 2030 Louisiana kids to keep an eye on?

---

2028 i know of the sam houston kids, mainly Brock Blessington who is ranked #1 right now in the state. Also the Dufrene kid from JC and Conley kid from the Fountainblue

2029 I know of the two barbe kids and they are legit AF. Especially Zaylon, he has been hurt but will be back soon. was up to 91.2 in the fall and is very very young for the class. Talon moved from Texas, he will be an absolute stud when said and done.

Also the Davis and Dugas kids are dudes.

This is a very very good in state class and is still trending that away. Very similar to the 2027 class, maybe not quite as top heavy.

2030 is kind of too early right now as the pbr state rankings have not been released yet. Not the strongest class in state but has pockets. PG released their initial rankings and I dont have access to the full top 100 but in the top 50 no louisiana kids.

But Tyler Early, who lives in the Tomball area, is ranked #1 and he grew up in Alexandria area and moved when he was 11 to houston area.

The best two kids in state I know of right now are Chayse Frierson, huge kid, very very young but tons of upside. Parents and brothers are very tall and he is already up to 83-84 as a 13 year old 8th grader.

The other is Ayden Barnes from Alexandria area, very very smooth fielder and good bat. Not overwhelming on the physical side but as of now is the most skilled player in state that i have seen.

Texas has an outstanding 2030 class. If we can snag a few....we will be looking very good.

2031 class is a monster in state though and is trending to be the deepest class in years but they are still only 13 in 7th grade but this has been the deepest class across the state at all age levels for a while and has held true for years now.

one thing to keep in mind about 2030 and 2031....they are still very young, anything can happen. What looks very strong on paper, can disappear in 2-3 years. honestly same with 2029.

I know he's a '27, but Jordin Griffin appears to be having a much better season (purely based on twitter clips) as a junior.

---

lol yea you could say that, he is batting well over 400 and ton of homeruns and honestly, the south wind that blows in from right field at barbe and sulphur has cost him at least 5 homeruns. in the first game against SH in Sulphur there was a 25-30 mph wind and both balls he hit would have been out without the wind.


i still think he ends up at lsu just because of height. But bat speed, throwing velo and overall speed are off the charts. Really really good kid too.

Barbe sweeps Sam Houston going 3-0 in regular season against them winning 8-1 last night at Sam Houston

Sulphur stays hot and beats Lafayette 8-7 last night

south beau beat westlake 4-2 monday night

St Louis beat Jennings monday night

most teams will be wrapping the regular season over the next 7-10 days

right now Sulphur sits at 5, Sam Houston at 4. So next 10 days is huge for sulphur. Figure out a way to win 3 of 4 from Barbe and SH and you are a top 4 seed no matter what. SH can secure it with 2 wins over sulphur

in Div 3 a lot will be decided on both select and non select side by the 3-3A tournament which is the SWLA area district. They have a tournament at the end of the season to determine the champion.

If St louis can win it, that would be big as that prolly means wins over westlake and south beau prolly putting them as the 4 seed on the D3S side. If Westlake or South Beau win it, they secure a top 4 seed and if they meet in the finals, good chance they remain #3 & #4 in the power rankings.

Democrats will make the last two years an absolute circus. And yes, they will win in November. There is very little enthusiasm for Trump right now outside of a fraction of his base.

Affordability? Nope. Deportations? Slowing and a mess. War? We’re in one.

whatever

i can tell you my life is better now than it was under biden and i can say with confidence I have won under every admin and i will win no matter who is in power


but if the save act passes, democrats will not win.

Btw WM beats Benton tonight 8-3. That’ll be a 50 point power point win. Should help with the district games that dropped us.

---

thats a big fricking win right there

Barbe has Sam Houston tonight. Going for a 3 game sweep.

of course....americans love to kick the can down the road and never want to tackle a problem now if it cost them money


but seriously....who gives a frick? he is less than half way through his term & if he wraps up the iran thing & gets prices down....the mid terms will be fine.

and in the end the current dem candidates dont stand a chance and if they pass the save act, dems are done for a long time.

i think you have this backwards, at least in my understanding


conversion therapy is the therapist and doctors essentially discouraging teens and their parents from going through with any type of hormone therapy or surgery.

or at the least its them telling the patients what all it entails.

Conversion therapy is NOT trying to get people to become trans, its the OPPOSITE

now i could have it backwards too but I think i am right and understanding correctly.
