Anyone surprised Dakota Jordan enrolled today?
Is he expected to contribute this upcoming season? Seems like there was legitimate interest from MLB teams.

It doesn?t mean he can?t withdraw.
-
They can withdraw at any time. They are working plan B if the draft $ arent what they think they should be.
-
Yeah- this is a shot at MLB to get the money right
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is
-
Just in case he doesn't like his MLB offer.
-
So then why wouldn’t he enroll at JUCO so he could go next year if he had a good season?
Isn’t he ties to State until he’s 21?

To play in front of some of the biggest crowds in college baseball? To get some higher level coaching, training, development? To have the chance to win a natty? To bang good looking chicks?

Don't know if he's gonna get the money he wants this year. Give State a couple years and get better and improve his draft stock. I think he'll be at State but with the way mlb teams configure their slot money who knows.
-
If he's going to MLB, it won't be for huge money. His stock is down a bit from where it was a couple years ago.

Yeah I've heard same.

I think he is already 19 so if he does come to MSU he could be drafted again after 2 seasons. If he doesnt get offered the $ that he is looking for he can make some NIL and play in the SEC 2 seasons.

Right that's looking like the plan. Be good for him and us.

Partially because he's draft eligible in two years anyway and Co-Lin doesn't have the NIL we do. A player is much better off going to a SEC school for three years than a JUCO because their odds of making it in MLB is better and as far as the draft going to MSU gives him more leverage than going to EMCC or wherever.
-
He's been very vocal for the last month that he is going to play at state.

I don't recall the last kid to enroll and then leave, after the draft.
Not disagreeing that it can happen, just don't recall that happening
Of course the draft used to be one-month earlier. Used to be in the middle of Omaha.
Did Brady Loftin and Ross Highfill enroll? Would be great to have these three Mississippi guys enrolled and on campus.

Probably Kirk Presley. Which was a crock because for some reason MLB literally changed their own rules so that he would sign with the Mets. He was not only on campus- it was after the signing deadline.

The only one that didn't that I'm aware of is Jett Williams. Which is not a shock. He's projected to go between the 20-26th pick.
Colby Holcombe also showed up to campus.
Draft is July 17-19th and the deadline to sign is August 1st.
By August 2 we should pretty much know what our team looks like from all standpoints. Recruits, seniors potentially returning, guys from the portal- although I guess Skenes could technically announce after August 1 and that's probably more of an issue of when classes start at MSU. My guess is he'll announce sometime around July 20-31 though.

what are the chances that Clijinte remains enrolled?
