And we'd better get used to it because this is just the beginning. We're definitely bottom half of the SEC next year.

In the NIL era, it’s going to be tough. LSU is next year’s Tennessee. They’re absolutely loaded.

gut punch. Losing Skenes and Mosely drastically changes the outlook for hoops and baseball.

and not only did we lose Mosely and Skenes- we have to face both this year

Early grapevine is he took it for 250K. LSU got a bargain if so.

I'm 100% sure we could have matched that.

Huh...... no.

All I've heard was NIL wouldn't be a major factor with this kid. Yeah right! Wonder what we were offering?

This is what people have to understand. NIL is ALWAYS a factor now. I'm talking to parents of 10th graders that are mentioning NIL of colleges to me
Skenes is going to be a 1st round draft pick whether he plays at State or LSU. Both coaching staffs are good. Both fan bases are great. Facilities are great at both schools. LSU has rebuilt and will be good in 2023. State has too.
But I know without a doubt LSU offered at least twice what we did in NIL. And he is going to LSU
This isnt rocket surgery

Yep. This NIL is really about to start kicking us in the nuts. This crap really makes we wish we only had 1 school in the state now(hindsight)!

Big time gut punch.
As far as starting pitching goes, we've got Cade. Andddd that's about it that we know about.
I think Gartman will be good, but who knows how he adjusts in the SEC. KC is probably coming back, but he was a hit or miss (mostly miss) this year. We needed that bonafide ace. Really not any of those left in the portal.
Oh well. Hope some of y'all realize how far behind we are in NIL. Maybe it'll be a wake up call when it starts affecting the one sport we're good at.

We just lost this one. That's all it comes down to.
Personally, I think the answer is to get a new pitching coach. But whatever.

It was an easy loss to predict. We don't win big recruiting battles in any sport, but we keep doing this to ourselves. This one stings a bit more for me because we badly needed that ace pitcher, but we will almost always lose head-to-head with LSU both on and off the field. Lemonis needs to figure it out, because this is what he was hired to do......recruit and put us position to win titles.
Concerning Foxhall, I'm not a big fan of his. It's easy for fans to get caught up in the fact that we won a title last year and just assume he's the greatest, but IMO we can do much better. I don't think a lot of top pitchers are knocking down the door to come learn from him.
