They really don’t, unless you want to give Obama credit for hydraulic fracking taking off which lowered the price of oil from $90 bbl to $46 bbl in the middle of second term and that carried over into Trump’s first term. Biden probably had more to do with a modest prize increase than any other President.

5’8” and 155 pounds would have gotten him an offer from a certain former LSU coach.

Baseball seems to be the only sport where parents discount size & speed. The reality is a guys like Jose Altuve and Steven Milam are outliers. The average height is an MLB player today is 6’3. The average height of a D1 baseball player is slightly under 6’2”.

Whatever. On this board, I've criticized Trump 2.0 more than I have praised him and this is nonsense.

You have TDS. That is not at all what he meant. He's inferring that is what could happen if they are not held in check.

There isn’t a ticket under $400 on StubHub. And that’s in the upper deck nosebleeds. Everything in the lower bowl was $1,000+. Absolutely ridiculous. The Alabama game isn’t much better

They will go down game week.

Griffin, the team’s leading rusher this year with 541 yards on 46 carries (11.8 yards per carry) and 8 TDs, has several offers to play both football and baseball at Ole Miss, UL, McNeese State and Old Dominion.

With the time both sports demands today, it's incredibly difficult to play both sports as a position player. Position players miss too much time away from diamond. At a program like LSU, you have to beat out guys just as talented as you who are getting competitive ABs all fall in intrasquad scrimmages. Very hard to develop as a hitter. Kyler Murray did it, but he's the exception.

Incorrect. McNeese buses in and buses back home after the game. Maximizes their check for coming. That one game check makes up 5% of the annual revenue for their athletic department.

Bingo. They had to spend to be in national conversation. People assume that since we spent that, we have a Top 3 roster in football. Doesn’t work like that when you have to turn over half of the roster.

Vital is good, but some things went down at Hamilton Christian, his old school. Vital was not charged or implicated, but LSU backed off after the incident went public.
