At this point I’d rather have Dillingham. Dude is young and has already shown he can coach. Also, he comes with no baggage.

Personally Dillingham is 1st on my list. Dude is young and has already shown he can coach without the baggage that comes with Kiffin. I won't complain if Kiffin ends up here but at this point i'm higher on Dillingham

Give Nuss the same running game that Etling has and Nuss doubles his numbers. I really liked Etling and he brought some stability to a position that was horrific but Nuss is much better than what we're seeing now.

I've always loved and appreciated DiNardo. While his stint overall wasn't the greatest, he had a passion for LSU and originally "brought back the magic". His main fault was he was too loyal to guys who should have been let go. He began the change in mentality in the football program that Saban took to another level. LSU is better off because of DiNardo.

Will there be crying by lsu fans if Kelly goes 0-4 in opening games?

Dude, we'll cry if we win because it didn't happen the way we thought it should. The only way we won't be crying is if LSU wins by 30, which we all know isn't happening.

I think he'd be a great DB coach

I ran it through chatgpt just to see what it'd say. Here's the result:

Let’s start with the **8 LSU Baseball National Championship teams**:

### ?? LSU Baseball National Titles:

1. **1991**
2. **1993**
3. **1996**
4. **1997**
5. **2000**
6. **2009**
7. **2023**
8. **2025** *(latest title)*

---

Now let’s break down a hypothetical **bracket battle**—single elimination, seeded loosely by historical dominance and MLB talent.

### ?? Tournament Seeding:

1. **2023** (Most talent-rich, beat Florida 18–4 in Game 3)
2. **2000** (Walk-off kings, legendary hitting lineup)
3. **1997** (Set HR record at the time, brutal power)
4. **2009** (Gritty, balanced, great pitching & defense)
5. **1996** (Warren Morris walk-off, clutch team)
6. **2025** (Newest champs, still TBD on how dominant in hindsight)
7. **1993** (Solid but overshadowed by later 90s teams)
8. **1991** (Trailblazers, but not as deep as later rosters)

---

### ?? Bracket:

#### Quarterfinals:

* **(1) 2023 vs (8) 1991**
Blowout. Dylan Crews, Paul Skenes, and Tommy White are too much.
**Winner: 2023**

* **(4) 2009 vs (5) 1996**
Tough matchup. But 2009 had stronger arms (Ranaudo, Coleman) and better depth.
**Winner: 2009**

* **(3) 1997 vs (6) 2025**
2025 team is fresh but unproven in comparison to the home run-happy ’97 squad.
**Winner: 1997**

* **(2) 2000 vs (7) 1993**
2000 team walks it off if needed. Better offense and big-game mentality.
**Winner: 2000**

---

#### Semifinals:

* **2023 vs 2009**
Great pitching duel, but 2023 has Skenes/Crews/White and the better offense.
**Winner: 2023**

* **1997 vs 2000**
Fireworks galore. Both teams could hit bombs at will.
Edge goes to 2000 for having clutch DNA and late-inning magic.
**Winner: 2000**

---

#### Championship:

* **2023 vs 2000**
This is *the* dream final.

* 2000: Brad Cresse, Wally Pontiff, and the walk-off bats.
* 2023: Paul Skenes on the mound, Dylan Crews in the outfield, and Tommy Tanks hitting bombs.

?? **Winner: 2023**

> **Why?**
> 2023 had the best blend of dominant pitching, elite offense, and MLB-ready talent. They crushed a very good Florida team in the CWS final and had arguably the greatest 1-2 punch (Crews/Skenes) in LSU history.

---

### ?? Final Ranking of All-Time LSU Champs (if they played today):

1. **2023**
2. **2000**
3. **1997**
4. **2009**
5. **1996**
6. **2025**
7. **1993**
8. **1991**

Ohhhh says the hall of famer!!! That is the silliest argument ever Nobody who hasn’t played “upper level” sports can comment or have an opinion on that sport? You certainly don’t have upper level intellect

I didn’t say you can’t have an opinion. It’s just when it’s one as asinine as yours then it’s clear you haven’t played big time ball. If you had, you wouldn’t push for that. But by all means, keep saying dumb shite. It makes the rest of us laugh.

I'm an older guy (46) who loves the traditional white jerseys and not a huge fan of mixing it up. That being said, if the players love it and want a variety of jerseys then who cares? Let it be and quit yelling at the wind.
