This what every other team in talks with Montgomery will say ?you really want to play your last year of college baseball with a team that hasn?t made Hoover in the last two years.? That is going to be hard to over come.

I can't see postseason play without Montgomery. Pretty much the entire staff has to make a huge jump, plus our lineup isn't incredible without him. He's a huge piece! We gonna have to score a boat load to win.Quote:

Well, if what u say or think then whatever money was available for zHolman should go to Montgomery also.Quote:

I think we better focus on football now. 8 or 9 wins would be nice. Making noise in NCAA for men and women basketball would be awesome!
We picked up a stud from Juco and another good arm.Quote:

Oh well looks like the ship sailed on Holman. No surprise IMO. We should've fired the great recruiter in May but then we had to keep the recruiting class together right or so some would lead you to believe but no worries, Lemo has a plan.
Well hell, a little sliver of somewhat positive news.Quote:

Well we should have plenty of NIL funds left to offer. Can't believe the Memphis 3B or the Miami pitcher required a big NIL payout.Quote:

Larry 24 at worst equals Larry 23
Montgomery will at worst equal Clark and is likely a better defender
Hugesak will have more power than Led. Doubt he matches him in average or obp
Our Cali signee at DH could exceed Hancock 23....would not surprise if so
Line-up will easily be better with Monty
We will not be back until we torch the barn
Montgomery belongs at MSU, we even have an iconic building named for him.

All signs point to another disappointing season forthcoming. Sure, the guys we have will be better. Everyone else?s will too. Lemon has done and added NOTHING to suggest otherwise. Coming to terms with this now will make it somewhat easier to handle when it all comes to fruition and we start the rebuilding process with a new head coach in May 2024.
He threw 4.1 innings in the non con lolQuote:
