re: Mediocrity of LSU Football - I miss being a top 10 team
Posted by wesman21 on 5/19/25 at 1:16 pm
We had an incredible run. Really in the last 25 years there were so many seasons where we would into it and only expect Alabama and/or Florida to potentially beat us. Other teams scared a year here or there, but never with the consistency of those two.
What is wild is that Saban got away (we will never know) and after we had the greatest season of all time our coach went off the rails and his personal life unfortunately fricked up his coaching life. Throw in one of the most lovable oddballs who also had some skeletons in the closet and now a coach with everything to his name BUT a national title and here we are...
Likely a top ten program ALL TIME, 9th or 10th by some metrics, but with half a dozen seasons where ONE more win gets us an elite bowl game and finish and then definitely not playing up to the potential in the last couple of season.

re: I Hope Paul Skenes Can Survive Pittsburgh....

Skenes is going to have a rough a go as possible while in Pittsburgh.
The best thing about baseball is that his individual statistics and metrics will always show that he isn't the problem and he does an excellent job of the only thing he can control, throwing the ball for elite strikes.
Soon enough he will be a Dodger, Yankee or on some other large market team with a $500+ contract.

Thanks for the reminder, will definitely need to find a printable bracket.
I have a feeling that if we can win this and beat Texas in the process it could propel us to the #1 overall seed.

re: The all-LSU starting 5 is as good as any other school's lineup. . .easy
Posted by wesman21 on 4/9/25 at 8:32 am
True and I also would take Shaq/Pistol over any other 2 college players all time as well. I loved me some Stromillionaire, but Pettit is in the all time starting 5.
We have five retired jerseys, those are our all time top 5.

Ready to tear up some Beaver again. I'd take this. Duke fans could be fun in BR.

Tis baseball, everyone goes through stretches. Even Ohtani, Tatis, etc.
re: This game is on Scott Woodward
Posted by wesman21 on 3/30/25 at 9:55 pm
Fire Scott, keep Mulkey.
Pro tip, Mulkey was coming with or without Scott. Don't think for one minute that he put that into play.

None of these will matter to me unless we win a conference or national championship.

No bro, this is the people speaking. While I haven't started any threads on Wade, you have to understand the frustration as a fan base.
SO, I hope the Wade posts are not throttled. While he isn't currently at LSU, he will always be tied to LSU and he just had a major victory and is on the upswing.
Let the ranters rant about it.
Don't worry, come first pitch enough baseball posts will start.

Plate discipline and OBP machine. We are so stacked.

I feel like that team and the GOAT team simply won't be topped, at least not in my lifetime from a pure talent perspective.
It is unreal.
