GEAUX TIGERS!!! LSU BASEBALL COACH JAY JOHNSON RELEASES FALL ROSTER By: William Franques BATON ROUGE, La. – LSU baseball coach Jay Johnson on Monday released the Tigers’ fall semester roster that includes the 20 members of the incoming recruiting class that have joined the program. Johnson said it’s been 56 days since the Tigers claimed the 2023 College World Series title on June 26, and the focus of the program now shifts to preparation for the 2024 season. "We’ve had a very busy two months relative to recruiting and finishing up this roster,” Johnson, the 2023 National Coach of the Year, said. “Obviously, the transfer portal has changed the dynamic of how we do business. We were very successful with the MLB Draft, only losing one of our recruits to professional baseball. “We think this is an extremely talented class that combined with our returning players will get us started on a good note in fall workouts.” Johnson said the Tigers will engage in individual drills and strength training for the next several weeks prior to beginning their full-squad fall practice period, featuring intra-squad scrimmages, on October 5.
