The guy was awful all year. Got benched. Has regressed every year. They can have him. Had we taken him everyone would be complaining. And so would I.

Carter Young regressed badly this past year. He hit .207 with .380 slugging pct, 66 K's and .327 obp. LSU is getting him mostly to shore up their defense as it was pretty bad this past year. He may hit a few hrs but he's not gonna help much at the plate.

He wasn't much help in the field either at Omaha in 2021.

Yeah. Our fans would be like "why did we take a guy that is worse that Forsythe defensively and has a lower batting average?"
He goes to Vandy "We're getting killed in the portal!"

Could be cool marketing to get players but it seems LSU baseball Nil deals are big enough that baseball recipients do not need a scholarship afterwards.
Unofficial number is that Dylan Crews gets 20/50K in NIL deals. That's not pennies but also not Millions. My other uneducated guess is that the payouts are logarithmic in scale. For every 50K player, there are 1,000 with 1K deals.
Watching the "NILSU" video, it's football and basketball at LSU than can become monsters. Shaquille O'Neal is a gregarious billionaire and media figure. Quite the asset. Payton Manning and Shaquille are about the best sports alumni you can have.
When you mentioned Shaq it reminded me that we are about to have several of our former players get called up to MLB soon- and some of them will be getting a big payday in a few years. Instead of having them build a building like Palmeiro we need to start asking them to contribute to NIL. Get a couple of them to contribute or earmark a million to NIL and then we're talking about a whole different level of player we can attract. The rest of us can fund Houston Harding.

"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

Really nice, under the radar pick up. This guy is a dirtbag, one of the highest compliments a baseball player can get IMO. He could be be our Dubrule/Yeager next year.

I think that is the reason for the "panic", we are a baseball school that is not good at baseball.

I watched this kid play at ECCC. This is a very good pickup! Line drive hitter with pop and can really run.

I would love it if Skenes and Nixon picked us tomorrow during Ole Miss's victory party.
