Greetings from Augusta, Georgia. I left Dallas and the site of LSU's women's basketball national championship early Monday morning for the home of The Masters golf tournament. The sacrifices I make for you folks, but hey, glad to do it. Ran into former LSU and current Miami Dolphins deep snapper Blake Ferguson here, who Monday was attending The Masters for the first time. So was former baseball coach Paul Mainieri. Meanwhile, the news continues unabated on the women's basketball front, along with a few other sports. Let's get started with basketball: TV ratings released Monday show that Sunday's national championship game between LSU and Iowa was the highest-rated women's basketball game ever. In a day and age where audiences are more and more splintered, that's an impressive fact.LSU has released details of a parade route on campus to celebrate its championship. There's even a map (I love maps).Fans welcomed the team back to the PMAC on Tuesday and we were on the scene.While Angel Reese is LSU's biggest star, this title belonged to senior guard Alexis Morris as much as anyone, writes Jim Kleinpeter.My column looking at LSU's biggest victory from several different perspectives.Kim Mulkey was swamped by more than 700 texts after beating Iowa. She answered them all.After winning a championship, LSU players look to what's next for them.Former president Barack Obama sent his congratulations to the team.ESPN's Stephen A. Smith on the Reese-Caitlin Clark controversy.We've got a poll: in which sport do you think LSU will win its next national championship?Like it or not, basketball season is over but the sports calendar continues. LSU baseball continues at No. 1 in the polls after winning the Tennessee series over the weekend. Spring football practice continues as well. Depth in the Tigers' running back room has gotten pretty thin, creating an opportunity for Noah Cain. The LSU softball team is building momentum going into the stretch run of SEC play. And finally, the latest rankings are in for LSU's championship-contending track and field programs. Once again, that's a lot, but we promise there will be no quiz at the end. Just enjoy all our fabulous LSU content and tell a friend. So long for now from Augusta. Scott Rabalais |
