    He's a good player so I don't think we dropped him, but we're bringing in two other really good freshmen catchers, and there's still a possibility Hancock comes back.

    He'll probably go to USM, be the guy, and have a solid career.

    And if he does, maybe he'll decide to join a contender in a couple years.**

    I see your sarcasterisks but one of USM?s best pitchers entered the portal today and he?s rumored to be either heading to LSU or Florida.

    and why the heck are we NOT trying to gain Hurston Waldrep's favor? You can never have too much pitching and from our results this past season, we had MINIMAL ! Absolutely no reason we weren't putting feelers out for several of the USM players.

    I?m not sure if you?re new to our fanbase but we don?t have the money LSU or UF does. LSU is reportedly paying Tommy White $200k.

    If you want to donate to the Bulldog initiative, you can Venmo @TheBulldogInitiative.

    If you have questions you can reach out to Charlie at 662 769 9031 or cwinfield@bulldog.ms.

    I believe you can also mail checks to PO Box 1653 | Starkville, MS 39760.

    10K Bulldog Baseball fans giving $20/month is 20K/month. That's 2.4MM/year. You could split $10 for baseball and $10 for Football. Whatever. The price of being a top baseball program right now is $1MM. We need to decide if we want to get there or not

    We don’t. College athletics is toast. I’m going to start following the XFL.

    You're right, Patrick Tibbons -- I'm f'n new to our fanbase!!! My bulldog balls have been dragging in the dirt for over half a century now, probably long before you were onboard the Bulldog train.

    I'm also well aware of how easy it is for fans AND coaches (and other MSU athletic leaders) to get complacent, especially when we still have Brackey Brett keeping us locked into playing by the 1990-2015 compliance rules that are no longer a threat to anybody in the NCAA but MSU.

    Any day now I'm expecting to hear how the new Champion Rebels start using their recently found clout to start gaining the transfers that we we need to turn around one of the most dismal pitching performances State has put together on the diamond in our history.

    So the short of it, Patrick Tibbons, is I'm not new to our fanbase and I'm quite aware of our financial resources.

    I’ve been around MSU fans long enough to know that it is very possible that he is about a year behind and is talking about Highfill.

    You?re correct. I misunderstood my source.

    USM has the backup at AL coming in to catch. He's a Sumrall kid that played at PRCC. Keys would be the starter pretty quickly at USM.
