When you click on them, the algo feeds your more.

There are plenty of pro-Wade posts from LSU and McNeese fans. Click on those

They are going to do a reboot in the next few years. Kiefer is somehow only 59.

Same here. This gif is literally the only bit of Sam Houston or Dutchtown baseball I've seen all year.

Connecting dots, I'm guessing Sam Houston used to get bullied by Barbe with these types of tactics, so they started fighting fire with fire and now they play the same way. Of course I'm only seeing one play and making a lot of assumptions..

I don't know who louisiana scoreboard guy is but I'll take your word for it. If he's a Dutchtown guy he might be feeling like this was their last shot with Prairieville taking a lot of the baseball neighborhoods from their attendance zone.

He goes to the inside of the bag on purpose to crowd the 1st baseman which is likely taught by his coach (kinda douchey) but it’s nothing that bad

It looks on purpose to me as well, and agree it's something he's probably been coached to do. The runner definitely initiates contact and could have been warned or called out for it. I wouldn't have ejected him for his part unless he'd been warned previously. The 1B is an auto-eject for his part, although I sympathize with his frustration.

This is the kind of stuff Barbe and Zachary used to be known for in the past. Zachary actually had two separate brawls against St. Amant and Teurlings years ago on plays similar to this. It's basically antagonize your opponent until he overreacts, and it usually works like it did here. This is where good proactive umpiring will know what to look for and nip it in the bud.

re: Has This Season Shaken Your Confidence in Jay?

Li'l bit?

I'm in this camp, but only because my confidence in Jay after last year was insanely high. He'd just won his 2nd title in 3 years, this time without the star power of the 2023 team (Anderson & Eyanson hadn't blazed thru the minors yet) and appeared to have mastered college baseball the way Nick Saban had mastered college football.

Looking at it now, the margins are thinner than they appeared when the team walked off the field after Game 2 against Coastal Carolina. At that time, it seemed even in a bad/unlucky season, the worst Jay could do was .500 in the SEC and a regional appearance because he's just that good.

Now we know the bottom is quite a bit lower than that, but I expect if Jay stays at LSU long-term he will have more seasons closer to the top of the range than the bottom. But instead of a natty every other year, maybe it's every 5 years. Still puts him in the elite category, and every other school would pay a lot of money for those results.

i mean if a kid is a stud baseball player and his whole goal is to play college ball, but you also want him to play football then you are going to have to cut a little slack for him to go to WWBA Worlds

Absolutely not. Games are mandatory, I'll die on that hill.

You start making HS football games optional for the players, that's not a serious endeavor and no serious coach will want to be part of it.

because the best players are there

Imagine Jay Johnson finding out a kid he's recruiting is playing Friday night football instead of traveling 16 hours to do a showcase in the middle of the offseason. "Scratch that name off our list. Doesn't he know all the best players are here?"

These managers using openers are fricking up my already shitty SP. SP can't get a QS if there is an opener like last night in Colorado with Dollander. I don't own Dollander but my SP has a opener pitching in front of him today. I guess that makes benching these SP easy on days you know the manger is going to use an opener.

I wouldn't hate the idea of changing back from QS to W next year, and hell while we're at it go back to AVG instead of OPS just to complete the 5x5 traditional setup

Btw, Herrera gets C eligibility this weekend so if anyone needs a C I may be shopping William Contreras soon
