FAYETTEVILLE — Since taking over the LSU baseball program before the 2022 season, Jay Johnson has not been short on compliments for Arkansas.
During the Tigers’ national championship season in 2023, Johnson said he viewed the Razorbacks’ program as one LSU had to catch when he took the job.
Johnson has said the Razorbacks recruit better than every other team in college baseball on multiple occasions.
“Like hands down, explosive players, talent — to me they’re kind of the standard of that in recruiting,” Johnson said May 8. “No matter who you end up with, you’re always going to end up in a battle because they’re always going to be able to match up.
