Didn’t CJJ sign the best recruiting class in baseball?

Means absolutely zero in baseball where half those kids could get drafted. They’ll re-rate the class after the draft and when we hit the transfer portal to fill holes made from it.

Why is this being down-voted? Isn't this the case?

If we get commits from projected 1st rd picks, we'd better have a backup plan because in all likelihood they're going pro.

We definitely need to wait until after the draft but I would be very surprised if we are not still the number one class after the draft.

Vandy is number 2, but they have 4 of the top 10 HS recruits in their class. I'm going to assume they lose all four of them.

We have some very good position players in the class and we should get some studs on campus but we need stud pitchers. I think this class will deliver the pitchers we need and make us a very dangerous team in 2023.

If one school has 11 of the top 100 players committed and the other has 1 in the top 100 committed who has a better chance of signing the most top 100 players and filling out a better class over all in the transfer portal.This isn’t rocket science and now with NIL there will be more chances for players to come to college.

I know Tennessee and especially their center fielder aren’t the most popular folks on this board, but this quote is too great to not share. Especially if you hate Vandy:

Drew Gilbert on if he noticed the yelling from Vanderbilt fans reduce over the course of the weekend: "You definitely notice that. When you're stomping on someone's throat, it tends to get a little quieter."

That’s a great quote

I was looking at an article of the top 100 pitchers in college baseball.

We had one pitcher, Blake Money, at 91. Fl. State had three in the top 21, Tn. 3 in the top 57, Vandy 2 in the top 32, Tx. two in the top 54, Arkansas 2 in the top 72. Southeastern and La. tech both had pitchers ranked higher than us.

We have average pitching and a poor defense that is not a great combination. I'm not giving up on this year by any means but I think we will really see the Johnson hire paying dividends next year. We have 14 pitchers in the class, if you include Guidry, and none are ranked in the first two rounds. You don't need great defense if you strike them out.

According to lsu.net, he inherited like 4 yearsa of top 10 classes

If those 11 are 1st rd picks and the one isn't, who has the best chance of getting a top-100 player on campus?

Beings there is only 36 picks in the first round and some of those will be college kids then your argument would never happen and is pointless. As of now the MLB top 100 has 12 high school kids in the first round. Zero of them are LSU recruits,half of them are Vanderbilt recruits though.
