Point isn't that the kid was a diamond in the rough. I simply grabbed these players because they are three of the bigger names from SB who were drafted fairly high this year and to illustrate the point that Joe has done an outstanding job of developing talent. When this team came in, I assumed that the inflated team BA was a product of playing in a weak conference. It may actually be higher after the last two weeks. The team was disciplined and hit extremely well, 1-9. That's coaching.
LSU is the premiere baseball program in America. We have the facilities, the fanbase, and the financing to continue that. We're in a talent-rich area. Dunn has done an outstanding job with the pitchers. We need someone of the same caliber to develop our hitters. That is all.

"Jankowski has grown two inches and gained 20 pounds since enrolling at Stony Brook"
Carmona is listed 50 pounds heavier than he was in high school.
Maybe we need get on whatever kind of strength program they're on while we're at it.

Joe had no idea Carmona would physically develop as he did.

Doesn't mean much when a great recruit needs a full ride and LSU can't give him one due to other needs and 11.7 limit for a 35 man roster. Look at the competitive landscape, we aren't in the 90's anymore. There is more parity in baseball than any other men's sport. It took a very odd final SEC weekend, including a series loss by UF to AU, to win the SEC. It is a shame the offense didn't come close to meeting the pitching talent on this team, but hopefully the incoming class has better hitting capabilities.
