Curious baseball gurus, what does our recruiting look like

[Thick]

for the next 2 maybe even 3 years? We seem to possibly be losing a great deal of fire power in the line up this year. Would like to hear all opinions.

[Taog Redloh]

Crootin' looks good, don't worry about it. I don't think we miss a beat next year. And we'll be stacked in 2018.

Pretty solid class, and domination in MS. Ole Miss got the Oxford boys, but that's somewhat expected. We are still taking a lot of Desoto guys they used to count on. I do think the consensus is that Walker Robbins is going pro.

[breazy]

my understanding is our recruiting can go from great to good depending on how badly we get hit by the draft. Thats a good problem to have imo

[Thick]

The Dillard kid from Oxford is by all accounts will be going pro as well...comes straight from his father, Tom Dillard.

[Brando]

So, out of these, who are not expecting to see? You can pretty much know which are gonna go high enough not to be here.
