Happy for Blake Baker! Came to Tech with Manny Diaz in 2014, If I recall correctly, from Texas after Diaz was fired. Worked his way up to get to this point the right way. From probably $150K per year at Tech in his first season to 2.2M now, good for him!!! Nuke...

A very good read that includes LSU's last visit to Ruston. Really never understood the reason for the La Tech dropoff in baseball for the last 30 years. the link is to the CUSA website. https://conferenceusa.com/news/2016/6/2/Bulldogs_Made_Memories_During_1987_Run_to_NCAA_Tournament.aspx...
The entire article is behind a paywall, but here is the gist of the mention of Tech... Five Teams You’ll Know By June. 1- Louisiana Tech I’m not sure how these boys from Ruston didn’t get more love in the preseason. They hosted a regional last year, beat four SEC teams and return nearly eve...
Loved Alabama's defense, it's legit. They are really quick and rotate out of their man to man defense really well. Tech will get better as the season progresses, as most teams should....
Funny you ask that, because I was the asst. coach at Slidell High during those years. Dan Ruffin was head coach. Constant pressure from a full court 2-2-1 zone, whether made of missed basket, very loosely structured offense with great shooters. People called it street ball but have no idea how long ...
I know LSU is playing ULM tonight also, but if you want to switch between channels during commercials, Tech and Bama are playing on SECN and WatchESPN tonight also. 8 PM tip. LSU plays both later this year....
Mainly a reader, but, I didn't know where to put it. Feel free to move it. BUT, I do think there is some foreshadowing concerning collaboration instead of consumption, which LSU is famous for. ...

Yes, I think it used to be called Century Link or Centurytel Arena. I believe it has had a name change though....
And I think Will Wade is one hell of a basketball coach! ...
Should be a good game! Man, some of the comments, glass houses my friends....
I'm certainly not going to predict a Tech win, but, the final score will be much closer than last year's game. BTW Philly Tiger, I see your tag says NC State fan. Congrats on a great baseball season, though you got royally screwed in the end. Tech travels to Raleigh to play yall in football on 10/2 ...
Really looking forward to this matchup in Bossier City! Kenneth Lofton , Jr coming off of his impressive Summer performance with Team USA plus some really good signees and transfers against what LSU has returning should make for a great event. I believe Coach Wade and Coach Konkol have a genuine mut...
Franklin High (Franklin, La.): Lyman White, Michael Johnson, Greg Bowser, Leonard Marshall...
Wouldn't it be ironic if Kim Mulkey threw out the first pitch today!...
If the game gets cancelled by mutual agreement, I'm ok with that. LSU lost Jaden Hill for the remainder of the season so that put a squeeze on their starting pitching and Tech playing 4 game conference series does the same to them. Tech is not going to use up its bullpen to get an OOC win at the cos...

re: Starting lineup vs Tech (updated)

Posted by nuke dawg on 2/22/21 at 4:16 pm
Tech's starting lineup is the same as yesterday, maybe a little change in batting order. Ryan Jennings was supposed to be the Friday night guy last year but missed the season due to surgery. Will be interesting to see how he responds to the situation. https://twitter.com/LATechBSB/status/13639629...
I was Dan Ruffin's assistant at Slidell High and watched Torris Bright drop 70 on Northshore High during Torris' senior season in 1999. Always wished John Brady wouldn't have handcuffed him so much....

Ummm, we are 3-2 all time against Bama. Of course one was a forfeit, so thake that away and we are 2-2. http://www.mcubed.net/ncaaf/series/al/latech.shtml BTW, I enjoy this board, y'all are fun! Go Dawgs!...

Haven't played you in nine years. Why would I visit or post on this board if we haven't played since 2009 ( yeah, that's nine years). Final score was 24-16 I believe, in the favor of the Tigers. ...
