This staff isn't letting anything out.
We apparently have guys committed already, but we might not hear about it until they enroll.
Which to me is stupid. We need momentum in the worst way, and people are getting antsy. Why not get some positive PR?

What even would be the reason to NOT announce it? In Football that can hapen so the coaches can have them all go public near each other and build momentum to get an undecided in the boat. OM does it for the lulz on us on signing day.
But baseball? Why would you want it to look like nobody wants to play for us until the window to recruit the portal has closed? We're actively doing the opposite of every other coaching staff in every other sport. Seriously we either say Jay Johnson, Sully, Corbin, Schloss, etc don't know what they're doing, OR we say Lemo doesn't, because they're taking opposite approaches on this
The kid announces the commitment- not the school
So... the kids transferring to every other school announce it, but ours don't?
What, are they ashamed to play for us? Are we consistently finding the 1 in 100 player that wants to keep it quiet?
Edit: just saw buckys comment. I agree with him- the most likely situation is that we have no commits
Yeah seems like we're in a sinking boat. You look at LSU. Bought and paid for a title. US , well we keep a lame duck coach who is suppose to be a recruiter but can't get any top portal transfer.
Seems like we're going to suck three years in a row and it's going to be three more years of poor play because at needed to keep Lemonis to keep the class together but they are going to leave and yall always say baseball recruiting is done years in advance. I hope that I'm wrong but it looks like it's about to be drought getting to Omaha for a while.
I'm not sure what all the bitching does. Either we have a good team or lemonis is fired. Just wait and see what the team is before jumping. Might be premature suicide. Js.
We've got commits. One to talk about. Others not so much. I'm over Lemons. We'll be looking for a new coach.
Beware the "Arizona Western College" kids from Yuma. Those were 3 horsemen of the Sherrill apocalypse.
To be fair
Ole Miss, Texas A&M have some ok transfers and some sad transfers. Arkansas, UF, and LSU have the bigger players. Probably this heats up after the CWS and draft.
Kids don't want to transfer into an unknown competitive situation, so maybe Parker's long courting period does no harm.
Seems that Burns is the game changer transfer this year. The Bama ace is the next best. Both recently added to the portal.
We might be. Again.... if we aren't good he's gone. It's on him and the staff. We have some young talent. And two guys in the middle of the order others would die for. So theres a start. Now Parker needs to coach up the big time arms we have. If he can't. We in for misery. If he can, maybe not. You're close to shotgun being bipolar- not quite as bad but close- let's just wait and see how it turns out.
