Well that certainly didn't end well....let us pray foootball season is more promising...,I won't hold my breath...
at 11amNo. Nothing (hopefully ever) will top that one.
I'm still going to therapy.
That guy didn't recruit most of the players that hurt us the most over the last 3 days... let's check back in a year or two before we talk about "what could have been..."Imagine if Sully had left for LSU a few years ago when they made a play for him and we replaced him with the guy LSU ultimately hired? What could have been…
Yeah brother LSU loses are the worse for us, but I keep reminding myself of the 2000’s run with Tebow and Noah/Horford. LSU fans hated me as much as I despise them now.
My daughter says “its ok Dad, maybe when I grow up we will beat LSU every year”
I’d add that I think we might have had the better hitters (2, 3, 4 + Evans) but LSU had more hitters, on this night anyhow.As I mentioned before, LSU’s lineup has hitters top to bottom aside from the inbred shortstop. Outside of 3-4 guys on our side, we’re good for a K every at bat. Throw in the walks and lack of control on the mound and we’re lucky to even see game 3

To me it was clear that LSU had better and more hitters top to bottom. Yes we are a home run team and that is not why LSU has better hitters, but we do not have the ability to string together hits say if the wind is blowing in or the pitching is good. I mean it just seemed like the LSU hitters more often than not get the barrel on the ball. And when the pitchers make their pitch, the hitters seemed able to spoil them and live to have another swing. I would really like to see some of our hitters develop more compact, make contact swings, particularly the guys who you know are not really HR hitters.I’d add that I think we might have had the better hitters (2, 3, 4 + Evans) but LSU had more hitters, on this night anyhow.
The transfer from Bama is a 3B/SS not catcher. The catcher from the portal was a part time starter at some NC school. No he will not replace Riopelle that will be Heyman.Was going to post this in the other thread but it appears locked so I'll stick to this one.
That a great season with a disappointing last game. Leaves a bitter taste seeing our starting pitchers (other than sproat, not that he had a good game either) all sort of melt down in the finals.
You have to think that cags is going to come back very hungry next year after his basically null performance in the postseason. Hope that he can continue to work on his game and become a dominant pitcher next year. I also expect to see a breakout year for one or two of our 5 or so freshman fielders that got playing time this year. Kurland, shelnut, and Heyman all seem like they are locks to continue to start for us. Maybe we just saw the beginnings of a big year for ty Evans as well?
I'm excited about the new guys coming in. I think that catcher from Alabama is gonna end up being better for us than BT. I assume we will be preseason top 10 again next year along with a slew of SEC teams. Should be fun

Cags is obviously wild but I honestly don't know what good pulling him earlier was gonna do. All of our pitchers sucked last night. Sucked out loud. None of them could hit the ocean from a boat. When Cags came out it was 6-2 I think, hardly an insurmountable lead. The pen gave up 12 runs! Truly the most awful display of pitching top to bottom I've ever seen. The walks, the HBPs, the wild pitches, the 0-2 meatballs right down the middle....JFC! It was like one of those rare MLB games where its so out of hand they bring in the right fielder to pitch the last inning, except this was the 2nd inning of the championship game.
I was depressed this am
