The Portal and baseball
Next year is 9-months away but just making this observation...
(1) Stephens saved the MSU season.
(2) Holman and Jump were worth every penny for LSU, or they would have suffered a catastrophe season. Worse than MSU after 2021 and maybe worse than Auburn
(3) Montgomery made TAM a National Championship contender.
Had MSU been able to swing Holman and Montgomery. MSU would have won the SEC, shared with Tennessee and Kentucky. Hosted a regional. That close.
Next season, the ability to sign Holman, Montgomery, or Skenes will be much better. Imagine trying to sell Skenes on last place and Foxy. Imagine selling Holman after 2-horror seasons and a fired PC. With Montgomery, he did not like us for many reasons, everybody likes Austin's Taco and Selfie scene. But you are also a solid last place team.
If MSU can get 2 or 3 Stephens prospects and 1 glamour Skenes/Holman prospect, you are suddenly top-10. You can say that Justin Parker will find 4 or 5 ready dudes from Stevens, Pico, Ligon, Dotson, Loftin, Holcombe, Booth, O'Leary, Grant, Black, and Siary. You just need 6 or 7 total dudes for a college baseball season. You fix Holcombe, Stevens, Ligon, and Loftin you are very legit. I wonder if MSU gets Hardin back.
Lemons better get busy pulling the St Johns catcher. Lemons might even drag his nuts on Butch's Auburn or Bianco's roster. All those Foxed up Auburn pitchers may actually be stars with good coaching. Joseph Gonzalez was a big recruit, now a 10 ERA shell-shock patient. JT Quinn might call his dad for a path out-off Oxford, something like that.
