He’s the only piece that’s still up in the air right now. What is the timeline on him deciding whether or not to sign? It seems like the longer it goes on, the better for Tennessee, but I may be wrong.

I found a pretty detailed Astros fan site that is tracking all their draft picks and whether they've signed yet. They don't really know either way with him yet, but I'm going to keep that site open for future reference over the next week or 2.

I would also add Bargo/Chapman into the up-in-the-air bucket. It's hard for me to believe we wouldn't make room for Bargo if he wants to return. Not sure on Chapman.

Who did we expect to lose?
From our crop of recruits and transfers, we lost:

Steele Hall
Billy Carlson
Kruz Schoolcraft
Matt Barr
Mason Estrada
Clay Edmondson

There was never greater than a 0% shot of getting Hall or Carlson.
Schoolcraft was essentially a pipe dream.
Barr wasn’t going to be able to get into the university.
I guess you might be able to argue that we thought we could get Estrada or Edmondson, but I don’t think anyone was surprised that they got drafted and intend to sign.
That leaves Newman, who could still sign with Houston. Hopefully he doesn’t though.
