What they are saying about LSU Baseball 2009 (not really new, but it’s time for baseball)---

From Collegiate Baseball:

Not since Louisiana State put together a run of five national championships from 1991-2000 have the Tigers been this loaded with talent. LSU features five Louisville Slugger pre-season All-Americans from a team that finished fifth at the College World Series last season.

"It is rare to have seven starting position players back after playing at the College World Series the year before. In fact, we really have eight. Shawn Ochinko (1B/C) played in 47 games last season. While we did lose Matt Clark who hit the most home runs in the nation last year with 28, we have a bunch of quality players who are very experienced. We also had a solid recruiting class which will help with team depth."

LSU's deep, balanced lineup features eight players who factored prominently in last year's Omaha run. Dean, LeMahieu, Landry, Mitchell, Helenihi, Schimpf, Ochinko and Gibbs all wear out the gaps with hard line drives, and all are tough outs. There's no breathing room in this lineup.

Also Aaron Fitt comments on the Tigers –

Aaron Fitt: The Tigers are just so athletic, they’re going to get to a lot of balls other teams wouldn’t particularly in the outfield. They look particularly strong up the middle with Gibbs, Schimpf, Lemahieu and Landry.

Coach Mainieri was on Rivals radio this morning, it was a nice 10 minute interview - LINK

I don't know if this has been posted, but last week Rivals had a preview for No. 2 LSU:
LSU hopes to build on magical campaign

Last year was a dream season with all those comebacks. Hopefully we can get the lead and cruise to wins this year.

<--- Is looking forward to baseball.

Hopefully I won't have to endure any hard comings this season for LSU to make a run :grin: :tigbas:
