The new Skip? More like the new Smoke.

Lets compare Little Smoke Vitello to former LSU coach Smoke Laval. How close is Little Smoke in reaching the level of Big Smoke?

In their first four full seasons (Does not include the cancelled season of 2020):

Smoke Laval
75-43 (SEC record)
4 Regionals
3 Super Regionals
2 CWS

Smokey Vitello
71-49 (SEC record)
3 Regionals
2 Super Regionals
1 CWS

Looking at the records, with a little improvement, Little Smoke Vitello would be THIS close to Big Smoke Laval




Little Smoke knows. Sometimes you just tip your cap to the better man and move on.

Yes, the programs Smoke and Vitello were identical. Tony inherited a perennial SEC championship and CWS program.

1 big difference. LSU fired their Smoke for not living up to powerhouse program expectations. Tennessee is building a statue for their Smoke.
