Coach Johnson is a great one! We are in a good place!

[rkloete]

Love this coach and this program. Accomplished more than many thought they would this year. Love his approach, attitude and love for baseball.

[SusiePlatt-sjtk]

Coach Johnson you are the best coaches!! GEAUX Tigers!

[jeff-knfl]

Great run the last few weeks, coach and team! It’s hard to win back to back nattys

[lesliehaygood]

Y’all can come back next year and win the whole thing

[ivansalazar]

I think the MBL nor the NFL should NOT be allowed to sign high school players. It's a shitty situation to say the least!

Coach Johnson will have a very busy summer. Tigers will lose at least 9 pitchers, three starting infielders, and 3 outfielders plus a DH and a very good catcher. Next year, we will need a program for the early part of the season to identify our guys

Tommy tanks isn't coming back bro hate to break it to you!! He batted 300 plus through his career, with 50 r more rbis, and 20 plus homers each season!! Not to mention improved significantly defense wise this season. His draft stock doesn't get much higher!! I doubt jared jones comes back to either!! Lsu gonna have to reload!!

[mohavie]

if Tommy Tanks and Bear Jones come back for another year, LSU will be in Omaha next year. i think both of them could use another year to work on their craft.

Both tommy and jones are history, your hitters did good against 2nd string pitchers, that was evident in the SEC tournament, but a good pitcher not even. A starter shut you down north carolina shut LSU down, the big hitters look uninterested in the game, cause they have a big major league baseball contract coming their way
