Johnson Comments on Ejection Following LSU's Historic Victory
In a groundbreaking achievement, LSU baseball coach Jay Johnson has become the youngest coach to win a national championship before his third season. Johnson, who is only 44 years old, led the Tigers to their first College World Series title since 2009 with a thrilling 9-6 victory over Omaha.

Following LSU's historic victory, Johnson addressed his ejection from the game. "Yeah, and I have a great perspective on this from where I came from," Johnson said. "I've been ejected before.
