Vitello has Spirit Chuck big mad today

[Offshore Dawg]

I'm betting he impregnates a sorority girl long before then***

Will not matter, I thought that was a hillbilly standard with your cousins.

[Offshore Dawg]

I can assure you Lemonis isnt tampering.

Has to be true, no results.

Saw a screen shot of that idiot whining about Tenn snaking them on Fischer. But it's just more of what I've been saying for awhile now. The big boys have made college baseball the same as college football now.

Fischer had an NIL with Mississippi
After having a great season- Fischer wanted to renegotiate for more money. Mississippi complied and gave him more NIL money for 2025.
Fischer then jumps into the portal 3 days before the deadline. Why? Tenn/Vitello slips in and offers him 6 figures more than Skenes got from LSU.

This is college baseball now.

Time to treat them like big boys. Mandatory non-negotiable buyout clauses and strict non tampering rules/ And this needs to be implemented before these kids unionize and have bargaining power.

[Hot Rock]

Tenn offered just south of half a million. People wonder why Vitello is such a good recruiter? Well here is why.

But let?s blame Lemon because we have offered Dirtbag $150K to not sign

Disheartening when C34 is the voice of reason. It takes big time NIL monies to get thet best... not 15,000 fans at game. Sure, all our fans make if fun but money talks and bullshit walks. It is what it is.

And they thought Jake Mangum was bad for their program. I think this is going to get pretty ugly for them. If Fisher wants a counter offer based on the way that Walker Jones is acting I don't think he gets it. Which means if he isn't bluffing he's walking. And losing Doyle is going to hurt as well.

And then when they finally are able to buyout Bianco in a year or two I think they're going to have a hard time finding someone between salary and the remaining crater left behind. I only say two because the buyout is apparently that bad.

Hi Todd, what do you think of Ole Miss' JT Quinn and Grayson Saunier. It's not tampering, they are already in the portal and were rather big recruits.

You don't break the bank with players that are not currently stellar. Plus they come with 170 combined innings of D1 experience. Maybe they come humble and ready to work with Parker. Seems we can catch their peak year of performance as Juniors.

What sticks out about OM is that the whole staff is on fire. Like when MSU had Foxy. Seems more like coaching issues that talent.

Is C34 saying that MSU offered Mershon 150K in NIL and that UT is offering Fischer 500k?

Not disputing, I don't know anything.

What I read about LSU with Crews, Skenes, and Tanks is that their money was way lower than that. More like 80K but with money promised after school. Like Tanks stays the Baton Rouge face of Raising Cain's for a few years. Crews continues to rep Mariucci bats for a few years. But the money was not that big. But I am not saying that I truly know the numbers.

I'd love to see what Augie Garrido would think of coaching in the NIL era of College Baseball. He would have had a heart attack every game from cussing so much. This post is for the baseball gurus that knew how he coached and how he approached the game. I think his last stop was Texas?

Is lemonis entering the final year of his contract?

I thought he got bumped up a year. It would be hard to believe that Selmon would let him enter the final year of his contract.

They are negotiating his extension currently

The numbers are “total package”. Nobody is handing them that much in cash. 40K may be in the form of a car donated by a car dealer. Then set them up with X amount of dollars with this or that company paying that part of it- etc. Crews, Tanks, and Skenes total packages were way north of 80K

UT paying Fisher double what OM offered. Not 500k though.

Most players aren't getting anywhere near this amount. But Fisher checks off a lot of boxes for UT

I like Saunier but I will say really the only game I saw him pitch was against us in the Governor's Cup and I thought he did a good job. I know he lost his rotation job at Ole Miss. He seems like a guy that Parker could "fix".

Quinn apparently wants to go play closer to home in Florida but I would be fine taking him too.

Quinn has some upside with the right pitching coach

Agree. I'd love to get him

it's not 5 but it is stupid amount considering. more than braden mont got

[Coach34]

yeah thats why I said south of 500K. Crazy packages out there for certain guys.

2 good pulls by us this week. Need a couple more quality pulls and we will have had a good portal season

Tenn got the title and money is coming in. Overpay to rebuild and make sure you are there in the mix again. Makes your HS recruiting easier and portal guys even more interested. Good plan for 2025

Walker Jones is crying on Twitter that "tampering is a problem." I mean....

Do what? After all those jokers have done in football. Shoes on the other foot now Walker.
