Is secret recruits just another way of saying that runts eat last? We will see.Quote:

(5) Florida got the Bama 25 HR kid
(6) LSU got 3 commits while still in Omaha - a Xavier LHP that was key in beating Vandy in the regionals.
Many Wichita and Clemson kids still out there, but everybody is on them. Texas AM, Arkansas, and of course the Vols and Tigers.
Allegedly the guys we are on are not in the portal yet. They will announce they are entering the portal, and transferring to MSU, simultaneously.
So I don't know how anyone would have a read on who they are or where they're going.
According to Robbie on T&L, he knows that there are 2 committed to State but he will not release the names. I?m hoping and guessing it?s not the JUCO pitcher that he is referencing. Btw, I trust Robbie 1000x more than Rosebowl.Quote:

Hopefully we get him in on a visit. He strikes out a lot, but he has a high OPS with some pop and speed. Decent defender too. Gonna be a draft pick in 2024.
So, State is tampering? I?m 100% okay with that. The NCAA just came down with a statement about tampering but until they show that there are consequences, I?m all for doing it.Quote:

How does that conversation go with the player?
"Hey...uh...we don't want you to enter the portal yet because some other team might swoop in and offer you twice as much."
Interesting that you used the required (when talking about a perp) media term <alledgedly> . Because what has happened to our baseball program the past 2 years borders on criminal.Quote:

So when the investigators come forward with real evidence that our Baseball Savant has gotten signatures of these <alleged> quality transfers, I will consider the fruits that accomplishment, but will still be disgusted IF our program has to go through a 3rd straight year of mediocrity before a correction is made.
He's just speculating.Quote:

No. I think it means the player(s) wants to come here and is not looking for portal drama.Quote:

Not quite yet. From the TN peeps I know, Burns told Tony V to **** off… he told him he lied to him 3 times, so he has no trust left in him. He isn’t staying at TN to come out of the pen. He wants to be a starter. TN has begged him to wait for NIL and they would Match anything. He is supposedly out for good.Quote:
