I believe he’s a draft eligible sophomore, unfortunately. He’s been hitting all pitches for power lately.

I could be wrong but I wouldn’t imagine he’d be a first rounder. With another season in college he could be a first rounder.

He gone and will barely hang on in pro ball due to an absurd K rate.

His Birthday is literally the cutoff date. Draft Eligible by a few hours. Mom should of pushed out a few hours later.

Bear is such a team leader and stand up guy, that if we don't win it again this year, he's going to come back.

I mean yeah, there was. He struggled mightily with off speed and SEC pitching last year. He’s done much better this year.

I don’t think he’s going really high. Doesn’t hit for enough average he should stay and get better

With another season he could also get hurt. Or go in an extended slump and have a worse year. Sure, he could have an even better year next year too. And that's probably more likely. But I don't think he can really elevate his stock that much, no matter the season he has. He is who he is.

I'm more worried about Herring. Gonna have to probably guarantee him a weekend starting role and some cash to get him to come back. Even that might not be enough. Winning the NC does have some negative side-effects. These guys have already reached the mountaintop and were both big pieces of that national championship team. May be ready to go ahead and start their professional careers where they don't have to take classes and can focus on that all day, every day. I guess we can hope they're in love with an underclass co-ed, and they can talk them into staying 1 more year. But I doubt it. Not sure the risk is worth the reward for those 2 in particular.
