About this episode
LSU sports are hitting a rough patch, from a losing streak on the diamond to high-profile departures and losses on the court, all while former football coach Brian Kelly makes waves with his recent comments. LSU Baseball's Slump The reigning national champion Tigers have indeed struggled recently, dropping four of their last five games. Recent Losses: The skid includes a midweek loss to McNeese State (7-6) and a home series loss to Sacramento State, where they dropped two out of three games. Current Record: Despite the recent slide, LSU remains 12–5 (0–0 SEC) as they prepare for the start of conference play. Coaching Outlook: Head coach Jay Johnson has taken responsibility for the "rough opening" against mid-major programs but maintains that the aggressive early scheduling will benefit the team long-term. LSU Women’s Basketball (WBB) Updates The Lady Tigers suffered a double blow this past weekend with a postseason loss and the departure of a key staff member. Loss to South Carolina: LSU fell 83–77 to No. 3 South Carolina in the SEC Tournament semifinals on March 7, 2026. Despite a 24-point performance from MiLaysia Fulwiley against her former team, the Tigers couldn't overcome the Gamecocks' late surge. Assistant Coach Departure: Top assistant Gary Redus II is reportedly leaving Kim Mulkey’s staff to become the next head coach at Rutgers. Redus has been a vital recruiter for the program, helping secure No. 1 ranked classes in 2023 and 2025. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
