I think the tournament, for all sports, should include the previous season’s champions so they have a chance to defend their title.

This pretty much automatically happens in basketball and gymnastics. Probably will happen in football too, especially if there is expansion. But the data set is too small for now.

There are worse parts of the season for the annual hitting slump

LSU v Indiana

Before I went to LSU for grad school I went to Purdue. Our main sports rival was Indiana.

So, in the spirit of STTDB, I say:

POTFH.

P*ss on the F*cking Hoosiers.

LSU grad & faculty member (different school) here. There are always multiple options to get students enrolled later in semester- especially today with online asynchronous options.

Complementary carpetbagging
I think that there needs to be some kind of limits on the portal. Perhaps like you can only transfer 1-2 times, or if you transfer you have to stay for 2 seasons.

The problem is the NCAA is run by the big conferences, and putting limits on the member schools is against their self interests in some cases. So they won’t.

But if they don’t set some limits, then they will have limits imposed by legislation. And they may not like this.
Good.

I’m over-educated having degrees from both Purdue and LSU. And as Indiana is Purdue’s main rival all I have to say is POTFH. Roll Tide

Who left the team in a worse situation?

So who left LSU in a worse position- Coach O or Coach BK?

I have little doubt that we have the right guy in place to fix it, and he has the $ required to do the job. But the philosophical question remains- is he in a better starting position than BK was in 2022?
