35 is too slow to drive on Highland Rd under normal conditions.
Again, what part of Highland and of course conditions matter, night or day, familiarity with the road if it's the stretch between Siegen and I-10, visibility.

Honestly, the only market for a book about college baseball is here in LSU Country - so if anyone is going to write a book about it and hope to make any money at all - best feature LSU. Nobody loves it and support it and consume it like we do.

there is not a single paved roadway south of the ozark mountains that is “challenging” to drive for a healthy ambulatory adult. If you find highland road challenging you should probably put away your car keys
First of all - I don't think that's true - second of all I didn't say it was for me I say I could see that one stretch being a challenge at night for one who's never driven it. There is even a turn in that stretch where the speed limit is actually reduced. Lot's of anger on this - road rage is real though.
re: PM threw his pitching coach and hitting coach
Posted by Tiger Ugly on 3/2/26 at 7:06 am to Gnash
He was always good an deflecting blame. I remember his first year here - he kept saying most of the team was not his players, so much so that he had to be told to stop saying it by higher ups.

Good point, most folks here are not old enough to remember when Tulane actually had a fan base, when they did there was none as obnoxious.

ou forgetting about the “two” free throws she missed with under a minute left that would have tied/given us the lead?
I did not forget those but we're not in that game if not for Flaujae, Fulwiley and Williams did not show up - Flaujae did.

What part of Highland Road? The one past Siegen heading toward I-10 has lots of curves with blind spots and at night can be a bit challenging if you don't drive it much.

It was wild seeing tickets for $10 for the other games and having to pay $50 to the Cubs.
I went to two Cub spring training games and both were packed. my friend who lives there and is a fellow Cub fan says pretty much every game is. They charge that because they can, the brand sells. Most other teams can't.

It's hard to have watched the South Carolina game and agree with this. And for anyone in this conference, they are the standard and the team where need your best to play their best. Flaujae was >>>>>>>>>> than Fulwiley that game.

Jay isn’t going anywhere. LSU baseball has a NIL war chest of 3+ million.
LSU has and will have as much talent as anyone in baseball this year, next hear and years after - because LSU just cares a lot more about baseball than anyone else and while they may not get as much of a share of the $20 mil allotment as a couple of schools are getting for baseball - the brand and other means available for a school who's fans care more will make up for that. The baseball hand wringers just need to relax.

Been to Sloane to see the Cubs, got there early, walked around the complex and saw players on all the different fields doing their thing. Did the outfield berm for the game, bring a blanket and stake out a spot.
It ain't cheap, but if you can get past that - it's a cool experience.

What's the context of "best" and who made this ranking?

Good point - Thomas or no Thomas - USC, Mississippi State and OU are teams I think it's reasonable to expect us to have a good chance to beat at home....and we didn't come close. I'd throw Georgia in there too.

Makes you wonder how bad a team Ole Miss is.
And Ole Miss just went on the road and beat Auburn. Shows you how much coaching matters. You think those Auburn players respect Daddy's boy at Auburn, forced on them by the timing and terms of Bruce's retirement.

Disagree. There were plenty of big and loud crowds during Johnny Jones and Will Wade’s in the past 10-12 years. McMahon’s teams haven’t given anyone anything to cheer about.
There are and have been exceptions sure - but I have been to probably 80% of home games the last 30 years and I'm talking about the norm.
Yes for some bigger games like Oklahoma and Kentucky under JJ and a few under WW there was some energy, but I've been part of trying to get folks in my section up and off their asses to cheer at big moments enough to know it's not something that comes easy or often. I've quit trying.
