JT looking a little better !!

[MSU338]

Word on the street is that JT is already registered for summer school! Not sure if it is a bluff but a good positive sign for sure. Time will tell

[Commercecomet24]

Yep. Y'all keep the faith.

[shoeless joe]

Nothin means nothin til the deadline passes...

[Commercecomet24]

Nothin means nothin til the deadline passes...

Yep like I said it's gonna be close, real close. There's reason for some optimism however.

[The Federalist Engineer]

It's a head fake. Nothing against JT and I don't know anything about him, but baseball recruits are pretty much counterfeit money until the February roster is announced

They can be absolute no shows and reappear in Chipolla, just quit baseball, show up in the Auburn roster, or just disappear. They should do the hat game of football players

We have seen it all.

Im not trying to pop the balloon but this won’t look any better until the date has passed. Of course he’s enrolled. If he doesn’t sign he needs to be here ASAP.

[Commercecomet24]

Anyone know what day summer classes start?

If you are going to go pro after two years you might as well play SEC baseball instead of Florida JUCO baseball. Especially if you want to play baseball at MSU badly. And Butch to my knowledge has no connection with recruiting him.

I understand the skepticism- but it's pretty much MSU or the Dodgers. And if the Dodgers sign him it will be way over slot.

[Tbonewannabe]

Once he attends class, it is over so I guess we will find out soon.

This is correct. I can't guarantee he's coming to State, but I can 100% guarantee it's us or Dodgers. Once again there is reason for some optimism. It's close.

[Todd4State]

Once he attends class, it is over so I guess we will find out soon.

Surely MSU doesn't start classes until the week after the Fourth of July and the deadline is July 6th- which is Friday of the Fourth of July.

[Todd4State]

This is correct. I can't guarantee he's coming to State, but I can 100% guarantee it's us or Dodgers. Once again there is reason for some optimism. It's close.

I'll put my Internet rep on the line and say it's 60% he goes to MSU and 40% he's a Dodger. With a player that's drafted in the first round- I'll take those odds right now. Especially with Scott Boras as his advisor.

[Commercecomet24]

Todd check your inbox.

[LibraryDawg]

Monday, the 2nd

[Commercecomet24]

Monday, the 2nd

I just looked at website says classes begin July 9.

[RocketDawg]

Word on the street is that JT is already registered for summer school! Not sure if it is a bluff but a good positive sign for sure. Time will tell

Well, with multi-million dollar signing money he can afford to apply and lose the application fee if he doesn't come. **

[RocketDawg]

I just looked at website says classes begin July 9.

Does MSU still have two 6-week summer sessions?

[Commercecomet24]

Good one!

[Homedawg]

He won’t attend a class before July 6th bet your ass on that.

[Commercecomet24]

Does MSU still have two 6-week summer sessions?

They are showing 2 summer terms on the registrar site.

[Commercecomet24]

He won’t attend a class before July 6th bet your ass on that.

You right about that.

[RocketDawg]

Once he attends class, it is over so I guess we will find out soon.

Why would he attend summer school instead of starting in the fall like almost all freshmen?

[Homedawg]

I'll put my Internet rep on the line and say it's 60% he goes to MSU and 40% he's a Dodger. With a player that's drafted in the first round- I'll take those odds right now. Especially with Scott Boras as his advisor.

Not real sure what you are putting on the line? If he comes you claim you knew it. if he doesn’t you will say I told you it was close...

[Homedawg]

Why would he attend summer school instead of starting in the fall like almost all freshmen?

Because we have lots starting in the summer. More than not.

[Commercecomet24]

Why would he attend summer school instead of starting in the fall like almost all freshmen?

JT is a 4.0 student he's been taking college courses in the summer the last couple of years.

[Todd4State]

That's why I have a lot of green bars under my username.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Most of the incoming freshmen take a summer course or two and begin working out with the team. At least they did under Cohen.

Yep. If Carter Stewart somehow did not sign with the Braves, I could see him going to Chipola so he could be eligible for the draft next year. Ethan Hankins, a Vandy signee, has signed with Chipola and has not signed with the Indians yet.

[msstate7]

This would be a kick in the nuts for us state/braves fans

[Todd4State]

I'm not even going to entertain Carter Stewart right now. I would be happy with just Ginn.

I saw Kiley McDaniels's tweet about "rumors" surrounding him but I don't know what those rumors are. Kind of makes me wonder if the Braves found some arm damage or something like that.

[LibraryDawg]

I just looked at website says classes begin July 9.

The July term starts on Monday. I have student assistants that are enrolled in them. They are taking finals for June term today and tomorrow with the next term beginning on Monday.

I realize you take yourself pretty seriously but surely even you saw the humor in his post? Maybe not

Not doubting you but I was just looking at this:

https://www.registrar.msstate.edu/calendars/academic-calendar/c/?year%5Bvalue%5D%5Byear%5D=2018&semester=summer+second+term

It says July 9, classes begin.

[ScottH]

Until the deadline passes, I will assume he's going pro.

Less heartache.

[Todd4State]

I guess it is funny for someone that doesn't understand baseball like you but thinks they know everything about the game- despite being proven wrong repeatedly.

It has been quite a while since I did it but State used to go 1 or 2 days before July 4th. I always thought it was stupid to go 1 or 2 days before the holiday.

Sure. Pat your own back. You just talk a lot and people believe you. Doesn’t make you right. You didn’t put anything on the line. You were in the band. Chime on

Geeze man calm down. Todd did nothing wrong. What do you want him and Comet to do, say "I think Ginn will 100% do X and I'll bet all my VCash on it!"? Is it not possible that it really is a toss up and they are being genuine? Chill out

I have no issue w commerce. None. He’s been great to entire process......and he wasn’t the one “ waging” his rep. Whatever that meant. Todd was poking his chest out and really had nothing to lose. Oh boy.

[Todd4State]

How is that any different than you?


I'm not being that serious here about putting things on the line. I assure you that people like you and Goat are taking this more serious than I do. I'll probably continue to "talk a lot" about MSU baseball and sport until I can find a girlfriend that actually cares as much about MSU baseball and football as me instead of Anne Hatheway's performance in Les Mis being terrible. (in her own words) .

However, I assure you that I am right on this. He will either sign with MSU or the Dodgers will pay over slot. Where I "could be" wrong is the Dodgers get him at or below slot since you want to make some kind of odds on it. If you would like to wager your piddly 1100 vCash on it with me- that's fine. I'm sure Scooba could arrange that.

[Todd4State]

And here I thought this message board was about discussing MSU sports and poster's opinions on the matter. What is wrong with him putting percentages on an opinion and what he feels will happen? We have some of the saltiest fans on the planet. Try not getting your jimmies rustled next time and letting things go. Better four the soul.

[Dawg-gone-dawgs]

...but I can 100% guarantee it's us or Dodgers.

Thanks Captain Obvious

the guys that believe Todd4state are the same types who believed John David Booty was transferring to MSU because they saw it on Gene's Page in 2001, most of them are 50+ and still don't understand how the internet gives a voice to every tom, dick and harry nimrod out there

they are easily fooled

"harry nimrod" should be your next user name Goat.

F*ck you Goat.

Be born with a psychotic mental condition. F*cker is obsessed with this place and has given a million times over reasons to be forever banned under any name he registers.

Green bars are proportional to how others like your posts and say so. I don't know how may "reps" you have to have been given to get a green dot, and it looks like at some point it starts over and you get a darker green dot.

Red bars are a joke but I can't remember what it was. Must've been a year or so ago.

Or at least that's the way I understand the whole thing.

[Todd4State]

Yeah. But much like who's line is it anyway the points mean nothing.

[Lumpy Chucklelips]

My daughter is signed up for second summer term. First class is the 9th.

[Homedawg]

Actually- you do have something to lose. Your vCash to me.

Just getting around to this, so what this stupid vcash bet? Obviously the dodgers will pay over slot to sign him or he comes here. Is there something more? Anybody knows that. If there is more let me know. I don’t give two shits about vcash.

[Commercecomet24]

I did, dumbass mf

Nice. Then you must not have much reading comprehension because I was responding to a post that was talking about him doing something other than coming to State or the Dodgers.

[Todd4State]

Just getting around to this, so what this stupid vcash bet? Obviously the dodgers will pay over slot to sign him or he comes here. Is there something more? Anybody knows that. If there is more let me know. I don’t give two shits about vcash.

If he comes to MSU or signs over slot I win your 1100 vcash.

If he signs at the slot value or below you win my 1100 vcash.


I also don't care about vcash either. But you were being a complete ass for no reason last night unprovoked. I don't care about my "internet rep"- I just want to talk MSU sports with MSU fans. And Tusk. The funny thing I've found over the years is it's people like you that read something sarcastic and blow it the hell out of proportion which ironically enough creates some internet persona. The only reason I came up with this bet is to make fun of you wanting to make this into something. And to show you that yes there is "something more"- the Dodgers can sign him at slot value or below. Of course I mentioned the two most likely options because that's logical.


But while we're on this discussion when we're talking about a first round pick guy we have a lot of fans that think that the player is automatically gone. There are MSU posters that may not understand that we actually have a much higher chance of getting this particular player. That said- are there some like Commerce that understand the same thing that I do and probably you do? Absolutely. I'm not saying that I'm the only one on here that understands the situation by a long shot and that I'm giving everyone something Earth shattering.


It's not me "puffing my chest out". It's not me pretending to be a baseball expert/guru or anything like that. I'm just discussing the situation is all. If people like it- that's fine. If people don't like it that's also fine. If you like or don't like it- that's fine to. But to completely hijack a thread because you want to ahem...puff your chest out calling people out for no good reason- because even if I was pretending to be an Internet celebrity who really gives a shit? Besides you?

[BeardoMSU]

Oooh, aaaah***

[BankerDog]

Ginn is in Starkville and has been all week. He wants to play here and he's hoping that the Dodgers don't come close to his number of $3.1M. Straight from the guy himself.

Yeah been doing some fishing with Riley Self among other things. Accurate post. There are some other things in play that are in our favor.
