With the way college athletics is going he basically has all the headaches of a major league team plus still has to recruit and fundraise.
Well, the two baby more similar than they used to be, they are still two completely different animals. First off, Jay has stability here, no matter what. That enables him to do things and run the program the way he wants. That doesn’t exist in the major leagues, or any other professional sports league. He would have maybe three years to show significant progress or be out on his arse. That is a lot to walk away from.
He also has full control here. In the majors, he would be dealing with a GM and likely much greater financial constraints than he has at LSU. When you include traditional NIL and sponsorships, he has as much money as any program in college baseball to play with four player acquisition. And he gets to choose those players. That wouldn’t be happening in the pros.
Those weren’t enough to keep Vitelli at UT, but they are still real differences between the two and advantages of staying in the college game.

Well, they probably are going off 50 some odd years of not giving a shite about college baseball coaches, no matter how good they are at this level of the game. It is far more likely that Tony V is a massive outlier than the start of some crazy trend.

Damn truth….I was at lsu during that time and those were the dark times of LSU football. They sold tickets in the west upper for $5 and it was still empty.
Tell me about it. I was in TGBFTL from 93-97. The last two years were fun, but those first two….you can’t get up and leave when you’re in the band. The Pigs Fly game at Bama was great, but I also got to watch every second of the UF 58-3 murder in Tiger Stadium and was at the Jamie Howard meltdown at Auburn. I think it rained at all but one home game Curley’s last year. I know it did Thanksgiving weekend, because I sat in it to watch that fool’s last game at War Memorial in Little Rock. Good times.
As much as that sucked, it does make you into a rather hardcore kind of fan and it really helps you to appreciate the good times.

frick off with this. “At this point” doesn’t mean shite. Every team Jay has had has improved over the course of the season, dramatically in a couple of cases. We don’t know where that will land today, so this is all just bullshite conjecture. And after a game that wasn’t a loss.

Y'all remember when we were going to lose and the season was over way back in the 3rd inning after Stanfield's error? Great job by da Tigahs to battle back and get the run rule as well.
If this team could figure out how to ditch the walks and errors, they could hurt some feelings the way they’re swinging the bats at the moment.

I like the lineup they rolled out tonight.
I don’t see Bide starting much at C if he can’t get his swing back. Serna and Braun are just hitting a lot better than he is right now.

Reaves is basically last off the bench. Maybe Jay finally figured this out.
That kid has had a GAME. HAT TIP.
Man. Braun had a hell of a series vs UK.

Primeaux trying to position himself in front Plog with that outing.
He probably did. He looked pretty good after that first batter, similar to Ricken.
