It’s not a joke. If LSU pursues him, he’s a Tiger. They will not lose out on any kid they actually want.

Starting to sound like me

Nope. You were convinced Tony Vitello was leaving us for LSU because of money. I never reached that point. Paying for players and paying for top coaches is different. Tennessee has the money and will always be able to keep their guy if they want him badly enough.

Did they want him tho, Thompson is their guy. I thought Arky was the challenge for Maui.

Maybe they were. I know there was a bitter fight for him, but maybe it was Arkansas.

I have to believe LSU will throw some NIL money at more than one pitcher.

I’ve adopted the “LSU bound” mindset to every elite player in the portal since last year.. I’m usually right lol. They’ll definitely snag a great pitcher or three

edit: already have, actually lmao

What year is Floyd? Cause that’d give them 2. Then they surely have someone else for Sunday

 

[VolFanGBO]

Impossible for them to get every single top guy. Just not enough starting spots. Just getting ahead of everyone posting 30+ transfer options and people flooding in to say they’re all going to LSU. It’s frustrating for us to keep losing out on these guys to them, but I’m not jumping off the ledge yet. Hopefully Danny will get something figured out.

DW neeeds to hurry

You don’t think he would rather have his pay, AND the ability to buy any player he wants like he would at LSU or just his pay and having to lose every top guy to LSU like he has here?

I’m not relitigating this 2 year old debate. Point is he’s not going anywhere.

Because you know the answer. We’re lucky LSU didn’t offer. DVH retiring and LSU are the only jobs that scare me though

Big name in the portal. Would be a huge addition to the outfield next year.

Why would we want him if we will have Ensley, Tears, Drieling, Backus, etc?

They want all of them

Probably sitting in Starkville.
Pining for the big city lights of Hattiesburg.

Because he’s better than all of them

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Because he’s better than all of them

In that case, go get him.

Can we get a catcher please

I don’t think they were in on him. They had Carter Young from Vandy coming and the SS from Baylor before both decided to roll with their pro slots.

With a big bat, 300+ average

…unicorn.

 

[Mccage]

Jokes make you laugh. The fact LSU will most likely buy this kid doesn't make me laugh.

It makes me jealous we don't have the NIL to compete with them.

people shouldn’t underestimate the betting world ….lots of money to hide

 

[Sam I Am]

LSU donors plugging in $10 million, meanwhile in Knoxville we've been discussing stadium upgrades for three seasons

....and yet..........LSU will NOT win the National Championship .......again......this year.

Facts.
