This, make him an offer he can’t refuse and then get Montegomry and we are in BIG business. But there is no way you can let him visit LSU or even TN after us…

from what i have read, we are going to have to convince him in a big way that Parker can do a better job of developing him than Johnson/Yeskie can. I don't think money is going to do it.
maybe do some negative recruiting and point out a&m's pitching struggles last year.
I'm going to be surprised if we can pull him.

Agreed and there's no way he's not going to visit LSU. Our chances here are not good, IMO. I'll be shocked if we land him.

It?s an uphill battle. If State can?t pull Holman then Lemonis is really depending a big jump from Loo, Loftin etc and hope the incoming transfers really hit. I don?t see this ending well for Lemonis without an Ace.

Money is not the top issue with Holman. So there is no "offer he cant refuse". He's looking at what MLB will pay him and which PC/School will get him there.
I think we are in 3rd behind Tenn/LSU

we don't really have anything to show him other than what Parker did for the SC pitching staff which is a small sample size. I think it would take Holman really hitting it off with Parker and something making him feel at home in S'ville to pull him. But, I imagine they have interacted a good bit and I think Holman has already been to S'ville, so.

Maybe or maybe not we get him, but IF he wasn't interested, he wouldn't make the visit. We have a shot, let's hope we can seal the deal.

Meh. 5.21 ERA vs big 10 hitting. 5.1 innings per start. I'd take him but more as a Sunday guy, the Miami giy we got is probably better honestly. ACC hitters are way better than what Purdue faced

Would be a waste of a scholarship. He's not good. We basically have everything riding on one pitcher. Which honestly, is another recruiting blunder but here we are. Get Holman, nobody cares. If not, woof.

We literally can't catch a break. That's a huge loss.

It was said yesterday that he was going to sign a FA deal. Big a loss in a position of need.
