He needed that
quote:

I can see Ruckert starting, but I'm fairly positive we recruit over Pearson. He'll be 22 by the start of next baseball season and hasn't shown a consistent ability to hit SEC pitching. The defense got better, but it's not nearly enough to offset the lack of bat.

Patrick could certainly improve, but he'll have to show it early. We're not going to spare any expense in the outfield portal wise. Jay likely recruits over him and makes him really earn a spot.


You think Ruckert can play 3B? I think i would give him a shot at 3B he cant ne no worse than Pearson

100% correct

Again 100% correct

quote:
His camp believes he is a first rounder next year and will not settle in the draft this year.


Either get drafted this year or lose a ton of money next year. Not sure who is advising them otherwise. Hope he loves lsu that much but I doubt it



Explain to me how he would lose money next year if 5 for 5 is passed.

I will hang up and listen
quote:


Some are declaring already but not many. Cal Baptist SS Chris Ramirez who hasn't entered the portal yet has been mentioned as a possible target at SS. Batted .360 with 4 errors.



My bad i meant to say any LSU players have they privately declared for the portal?
quote:

The more I think about it the more I realize how important getting Milam back would be to next years team.



Would be hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..


Have you heard of any guys hitting the portal? You know they like to announce on social media they hitting the portal even before the June 1 date to declare
quote:

I think Jay will pursue the best pitchers available because he did last year but couldn't land them, Volcho and Reddemann if I spelled them correctly.





10000% he will go after the top pitchers in portal
quote:

Trent Caraway (would like back)



LMAO.....................


You want him back as the team manager?
quote:

We definitely have a potential starting rotation currently on the roster but none of them have reached their true potential, so you have to bring in some competition. I felt like last year we were missing on guys in the portal we showed interest in at a pretty high percentage. I stated that I felt we didn't have the big bucks to throw around and I think that has since come to light. So let's hope those loge seats and a few other things give Jay a little more spending money this year. That being said, I don't think Jay will go crazy here. You are probably looking at bringing in about 4 pitchers.




If he don't bring in at least 7-9 pitchers with 2 starters i would be shocked

I don’t think there’s a chance in hell Evans stays here if that’s the plan





Hmmmmmmmmm. Yea i cant see him going anywhere. He will be our most experienced pitcher coming back. If he leaves i will eat shite
quote:


Unreal. He went to the hospital with an unknown severe illness earlier today. Wow



Covid shot?
quote:


Personally not convinced on him. I'm hoping LSU gets a good one in the portal just in case. Not saying Ruckert won't develop but this wasn't a single thing. It was an all year thing. He collapsed several times in big moments and cost us games. Going into next year in hopes he develops into what we think he will is partly why we experienced our problems this year with guys like Bide behind the plate.



He looks stiff at 2B don't know how he will do at SS but i'm all for leaving him at 2B. Go play 2B in summer ball and get better. I think he can be a good bat for us
quote:

Ruckert didn’t show near enough to be guaranteed a starting spot next year. Braun and Serna are the only 2 freshman that should have a guaranteed starting spot going into next year.



Agree with you and i'm not ready to move Ruckert to SS next year. Let him start at 2B and go find another SS in the portal unless Jay thinks the 2- SS he signed can step in and start immediately
quote:

I'd be a little surprised if both the eligible staff and Yeskie returned.



Yep i think Jay goes hard in the portal for pitching
quote:

OK, thanks. Seem like a couple of building blocks for 2027.



Braun
Bide
Serna

Those 3 you can build around. Plus the entire weekend rotation should return so there are pieces there as well
Is Cooper Moore definetely getting a redshirt this year? Has that been confirmed?

NVDA Dividend

Posted by Double Oh on 5/20/26 at 11:46 pm
they increased the dividend for this quarter from one cent to 25 cents. Will it be 25 cents going forward every quarter or that is just for this quarter?

Article i read made it seem like is was just for this quarter
