[The Federalist Engineer]

Good to see Larry ranked so high for him as a person. But sad for MSU-2024 I was hoping there was a snowball's chance.

Where is Kellum Clark? Could MSU get him back for 2024?

[ZedFedder]

It would be big to only lose Houck out of the class.

No. Clark needs to go

[The Federalist Engineer]

No. Clark needs to go

I like Clark. He hit better this year and has effortless power. Too many Solo HRs but that's about others getting on base. He does not have +8.00 ERA, he is an asset.

[Coach34]

Clark will move the LF/1B on the next level. He will get drafted late and sign for a little this year or come back- get drafted late- and sign for a little less next year

I like Kellum too. But he'll be 23 next year. Time to get started on his pro career.

Plus depending on a certain someone entering the portal, we could be upgrading at his position.

[magrooder]

I would be happy to have Clark next year, but if he's ready to move on, then I wish him the best. He did a lot good things for us over his career.

I want him to chase his dream, fine by me. But I appreciate this player.

His 2-run HR versus Virginia was massive. He smashed a shitty Leftie's No Hitter. I wish he was around in 89 when a shitty lefty messed up a great season.

[CaptainObvious]

I was critical of some of his weak at bats in key situations, but he is still one of the heroes of that 2021 team. If he doesn?t hit that 2 run HR against Virginia to break up the no hitter, I?m not sure Lemonis gets to claim a Natty on his otherwise weak resume.

I agree with you. Don't think we win it without Clark. He played a vital role in some key spots.

[Homedawg]

It would be big to only lose Houck out of the class.

I wouldn't count on that

He didn't hit a shitty lefty he hit a RHP that was throwing 96.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Griff McGarry was still in the game for Clark. That's the lefty with the no hitter through-7 innings.

The righty was Stephen Schoch, but the HR on that guy was from Tanner Allen.

[AlSwearengen]

You are correct on everything except McGarry was a RHP.

Maybe you need to go back and watch it. A rhp started it and was the pitcher Clark faced. You tube it. It's there

[Homedawg]

You are correct on everything except McGarry was a RHP.

And he wasn't a soft thrower. At ALL. But other than that yeah.....

[Saltydog]

Uh, McGarry was a hard throwing RHP with good stuff.

[BigDawg81]

Clark will move the LF/1B on the next level. He will get drafted late and sign for a little this year or come back- get drafted late- and sign for a little less next year If I remember correctly, he was drafted in the 1st round out of high school and he was our top recruit that was coming to State. I think he has had good career at State. I?m not sure why his stock has fallen.

Grant is on campus already.

[KOdawg1]

Grant is on campus already.
The word for long time has been that he's going to sign when he gets drafted.

Him being on campus is a good sign, but it could also be a bargaining tool. We'll see.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Uh, McGarry was a hard throwing RHP with good stuff.

He is a RHP, I have the games saved on my stream service. His motion was so asymmetrical, my recollection had him as a lefty.

McGarry was basically Virginia's Denver McQuarry but throwing strikes, so almost unhittable in this game. Lots depth and movement.

Dropped a bomb on Vandy too in the Championship

That never made any sense to me unless his family is in a bad situation or something.

He can come here and has a really good chance of making way more money.

[Todd4State]

If I remember correctly, he was drafted in the 1st round out of high school and he was our top recruit that was coming to State. I think he has had good career at State. I?m not sure why his stock has fallen.

He was not drafted in the first round.

[Todd4State]

No. Clark needs to go

Here's a difference between MSU and LSU. If we were LSU our fans would be throwing NIL money at him. MSU fans- "hey go ahead and go pro. It will be good for you."

I wouldn't be surprised at all if he isn't drafted in the top 10 rounds.

Lol if you say so.

I'm not anti-Kellum. If he wanted to come back, I'd take him back. But I also think we can upgrade his position.

It would have to be someone pretty elite. Kellum led us in hitting SEC play and he has had numerous big hits over the years.

[basedog]

I would think Kellum would help us if he comes back. Experience helps in the Sec.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Seriously, we already have to replace Ledbetter via the Portal, and some people want us to ALSO replace an experienced veteran OF that hit over .300 against SEC hitting this year and has some pop. How about we get OF and 3B committed before we feel confident we can get a 2nd .300+ hitting OF from the Portal

[KOdawg1]

Yeah no one is arguing that

Well all of that is probably moot because he's likely gone
