That’s a lot off home grown talent and you say people were complaining because we recruited to many local kids in baseball? Who are they? Do they hate 58-10 with local boys? No one has ever complained because a kid is local when they are playing to the level that is expected here.
    I was not active here in 14 so I have no clue what the knuckleheads here were complaining about . . .

    They weren’t upset because of where the kids were from. They weren’t playing anywhere near the level the teams before them did. That was the issue folks had. It wasn’t about their address.

    That is what they should have done but not what was done. You can go back and look.
    People here were livid and blamed our lack of success on too much local recruiting rather than bad recruiting.

    Yep. Like I said those same people had no problem with local recruits in 2014 and had those in Robes last 2 years had the same success they would of had no problem with them either. Nobody cares where you are from when you have success.

    I don’t follow recruiting like others but looking at the 24/7 link I can see how that conclusion was made. Tech and Tulane have several more top 60 Louisiana commits right now.

    I hope we not going back to the old days where we lose the head to head vs Tech in recruiting Louisiana kids. Napier might have been the only coach to beat them consistently.

    You can make a solid argument for Tulane having a good recruiting year now; but Tech??? That’s a head scratcher!!

    P.S. here’s to hoping there is a lot more positive news behind the scenes ….

    The question is who did BN recruit locally that we wouldn't have before?

    For starters before billy we very seldom if ever got kids from Acadiana High School. It’s not who did he recruit that we wouldn’t have before. It’s that before he got here many of the in state kids that he got would have picked tech or Tulane over UL or went to so miss or Memphis or some other school. He changed that at least for a brief period. Let’s hope Des can get that momentum back.

    Des is using the same evaluation method as they had under Billy…. The method has not changed it will be if the kids want to come here. Plus Des is now dealing with the NIL and Crazy Portal that Billy did not have to deal with when he was here.
