Got a Benjamin that we will NOT be having this discussion next year, that poor pitching kept the 2027 team from making a Regional or even being a high seed.

You stated that no one throws "that hard " on this team. This was aggregated early in the season
I think I remember that Paz, Sheerin, and Evans all hit 98 later in the season. Pleanty of velo on this team but control and especially location is non-existent.
But these guys didn't walk/hit this many batters when they were at previous school or high school or Jay would not have signed them. So what happened from then to now? Bad pitching coashing? Or is it that the bright lights cause mental and mechanical mistakes, that they just can't play in these high leverage situations.

Based on reports from early 2026, here is the velocity profile for key LSU pitchers:
Mavrick Rizy: Reaches near 100 mph with his fastball.
Grant Fontenot: Has seen a significant jump, with his fastball now reaching up to 98 mph.
Cooper Moore: His fastball consistently touches 96 mph.
Marcos Paz: Sits between 93–95 mph and has touched 96 mph
.Deven Sheerin: Features a heavy fastball that sits in the mid-90s.
Jaden Noot: Works primarily with a mid-90s fastball.
Casan Evans: Known for a high-velocity profile, typically sitting in the 93–95 mph range.

He did take the blame and admitted he screwed up taking those guys in the portal. Where did he put blame on anyone else??? I think it takes a lot for coaches to step up and say they fricked up.
I agree.
Suffering through this season but certainly no more than Jay and the team But after.a terrible football season, miserable men's bb, less than celebratory women's bball, I think most of us were thinking that baseball would get us in a good mood again.
Glad that Jay is the kind of guy who steps up and takes the blame and says "I will fix it". I can only imagine who PM would be blaming if he was coaching this team. I wouldn't be able to watch that presser, as I couldn't watch many of them his final year.
Trust Jay to get this right for next year.

Its not that they're ga fans, its that every ball leaving a ga players bat is "cranked" "smoked" etc, and they arent getting to the warning track
Exactly! PBP guy just called Milam out at 3B before the ball even got there.
Really bad.
I understand being the home team announcers but they need to understand this is a nationally available broadcast and they make it sound like it's on the UGA campus radio frequency called by broadcast undergraduates.
Lyn and Rantz tell LSU stories because that's what the know, and so do these guys but they are def better than Bulldog Mutt & Jeff. And Lyn along with Ben are really good.

Small mistakes cost us a run or two here. Then we make another one that gives up an extra run. Pretty soon it amounts to 4-5 run difference and we lose by 3. Same story all season except against USC and Tulane.

Not biased just incredibly incompetent throughout the league.

Stupid 2nd baseman should have let RF catch it
But the homer announcers said the 2nd baseman "made a great athletic catch over the shoulder and spun to make a quick throw"
Failed to say 1)the throw was 6 feet off target and 2)Patrick might be the fastest player on the field so it would have had to be a perfect throw to get him.
Announcers have love for The Box and keep saying 'you never count out LSU" but have no knowledge of LSU players other than flashing the stats on teh screen.
Lazy hometown crap broadcasting

Imagine being an old man that’s enamored with college kids acne that they go on a message board and make a post about it.
First, check the definition of enamored! Don't see any "love" or even fascination in that post.
And second, this is a message board filled with comments. Some of us think there might be some people on this board that have some information and/or intelligence about a subjec that we have observed, or we have an opinion on without facts.
Really tired of the smartass posters, probably from Momma's couch or in an apartment that she is paying for, that think they know it all and everyone else is a retard. Some of us have some real life experience instead of just watching YouTube or following on a social thread, and think that a knowledgeable, fact or experience based comment or opinion would be worth our read.
re: Quit blaming Coaching..The players are middle of the pack in talent. Blame transfer portal

if you guys honestly think that 14 SEC schools have more talent on their roster than we do, I don’t know what to tell you.
They don' but we arent in the Top 5 in SEC talent this year, at least not at this point in the season. Before the season started, I would have said yes to top 5.
But we have veterans who should be unshakeable and be able to deliver in high leverage situations who are soiling themselves and even making very foolish mistake like walking lead-off batters when you have a lead, throwing wild pitches, and striking out/weakly popping out with RISP in crucial situations. Got to be clutch. That is the difference between this years team and previous ones who had great success

Jay has done a shitty job this year. There's no way around that.
Without being at practices and team meetings and one-on-one instruction, you have no basis to say he has done a shitty job except in the area of transfer portal/player retention. And he has already admitted that. When players don't perform but have had every opportunity to grow into successful outcomes, it's on them.

Last year in conference play he slashed .296/.385/.440. 26 K’s
This year in conference play he is slashing .317/.376/.500. 14K’s
Didn't realize this but still seems like he is making more mistakes at the plate instead of making contact and getting put out. Same result on the BA but more command of the at bat.

What type of ticket at "The Dude" allows you to stand up behind the first 2 rows of seats behing the plate and spill drinks and breathe on the high paying patrons? Is that SOR General Admission or do they sell those spots as reserved? Any Cowbell knowledge out there?

They are really talented and are performing better, generally speaking than the upper classmen.
Love Patrick's skills but he looks very tenative in the outfield. I presume he as a SS at St Fred's. But looks like he is having trouble gauging where to go for fly ball. ALthough he did a great job on that sliding catch of the foul ball yesterday.

Stuggling at the plate and not a very good fielder what what I have seen. What put Pearson on the bench?

Swing & miss at lots of OOZ high balls & lots of swing & misses. Still hitting over .300 but seems like he made more contact last year
re: Is this team the worst since Pre Bertman?

Agreed. Another example of stepping up & making the play when needed!

They all didn’t walk this many before coming to LSU or JJ would not have offered.
