And how many years over the last two decades has UT's coach been there.

Stupid comparison.

Hard to argue.

And he's probably not bringing Yeskie with him.

Definitely not a home run hire. It's the lack of consistency that is concerning. CWS runner up in 2016 followed by 3 mediocre years. This was Yeskie's first full year.

So I'll feel better when I see who the pitching coach is going to be.

Compared to what LSU fans believed they’d hire? D

Overall hire? C+

Johnson was 61-58 in league play prior to this season. He won’t make it to year 6 at LSU if those are his league results. His first and last years at Arizona were good, but in between was mediocre. Seems like record wise, this is the type of coach LSU just got rid of.

We shall see.

A+


He is an outstanding recruiter.


Outstanding hitting coach.


He is young.


And by far the best looking out of the bunch.

You really dominated. Didn't win the SEC and didn't win a game in Omaha. Y'all fricked, LSU stacked.

C. They should have hired Bianco and done us both a favor. We'll see if this guy can recruit the SE.

B+ even though quite a few LSU fans claimed other programs would have trouble making a big hire because ALL the big names would be waiting to see what LSU did.

Laughable.

Will depend on the pitching coach. Yeskie either head coach or going to A&M

D for dam why didn't you go for someone better? JK , but being serious; I think this is a pretty good hire. He has been to Omaha twice, and he'll get a lil better talent @ LSU.
