I just don't think ole Cord Sandberg is going to make it at baseball
He's still in single A...actually was demoted the beginning of this month. Was tearing it up for a couple weeks, now is batting .188 his last 10 games. Only one HR this season and strikes out 33% of the time. How long will he keep up the dream?
I know...it was about time for a yearly Cord Sandberg post.

Cord Sandberg will never, ever, ever play QB (or any other position for that matter) at Mississippi State, so I personally couldn't care less about the yearly Cord Sandberg "Where is he now?" posts.

Cord would never see the field if he was here.

I'd like to have him here regardless.

He made a mistake like we all have before. If he wants another shot and Mullen thinks he's worth a shot, then let's see what happens. That said. I seriously doubt it will happen.
-
If he comes here this fall, he could be the backup and let us have the luxury of redshirting Keytaon.
Even if he never starts for us, he would still be a serviceable backup in 2018-2020.

I hardly call $750,000 a mistake.

Considering we have all of 2 QB's right now, I'd love to have him in the fall. Ain't like we don't have the scholarships.

Wow, didn't realize that. Did he get that all at once? What obligations does he have tied to that money?
-
I would be fine with him coming in and competing for the #3 spot

Wouldn't beat out Fitz or Key. He'd exhaust eligibility before he ever got into shape enough to hit the field.

Pretty sure he has a guaranteed college education paid for by the phillies too

He was rated similarly to Key coming out of high school. Both were 4-stars that excelled against very tough level on competition in talent rich areas. Hard to say one way or the other who would beat out who. But Key has the advantage of not having spent the last 4 years playing baseball.

That's only 360k after taxes. I hope he didn't pay an agent. And he's been making minimum since then.

So 360k, chance to chase his dream, and college education paid for after baseball... I'd say that's a pretty good deal.

I can't blame the kid for chasing his dream. The last big, left handed QB Mullen coached didn't fare so hot in the NFL, and this was before the Dak hype where Mullen could prove a QB he mentored could make it in the bigs.
-
The odds are firmly stacked against him ever doing it but yall sure are quick to discount him... He was Mr Football in Florida his senior year.. Go back and watch his film.. Hes also a grown man now that should be in great shape since you know hes been a professional athlete for the last four years... With our quarterback depth chart and the fact hes a free player in terms of scholarship I would think Mullen would do back flips if he wanted to come this fall... After two more years of Fitz he and Key could figure it out

Don't forget Alex Smith.
