Slow process
Anybody who was counting on a quick fix for LSU baseball probably got a rude awakening tonight.
Tulane 8, LSU 3.
There was a time when LSU had the upper hand in this series. Not anymore.
It's quite evident Smoke Laval let the program slip. But it has taken until now to see just how far.
Paul Mainieri has a lot - and I mean, a lot - of rebuilding to do.
In fact, I'll go so far as to say Skip Bertman may have been in better shape in 1984 than Mainieri is now. Not that Bertman had better players, but Bertman's SEC hadn't taken on the dog-eat-dog situation it is now. Mainieri hasn't even gotten in to the worst of the LSU schedule.
So it's going to take time. Will LSU fans be patient?
