re: LSU Baseball 2024 (and beyond) Recruiting Thread OLD THREAD

My son played against Konner Griffin last night. 2nd time we've played them this year. Tons of scouts at each game of course. I talked to 2 of the Cardinals (they have the 6th pick and a legit shot at him) scouts for a while last night. I figured Griffen would never set foot on LSU's campus, but they weren't so sure. Said his dad was pushing him toward college. Take that for what it's worth.


Also he is a freakishly good baseball player. Lots of D1 talent on the field and he just stands out. We have struck him out twice tho

He's still I'll see it to believe it if it happens there because in the end someone will be wanting to draft him very high and give him at least $5M if I had to guess and thats a ridiculous amount of money to pass up to go to college. That being said, Dylan Crews is a helluva example of someone who passed up A LOT ($2M-$3M?)of money out of high school to turn around and 3 years get a $9M pay day instead. Also sometimes kids just want that college experience...but still a guy like Griffin is going to be in the super longshot category with how much MLB teams will be throwing his way come the draft.

I'd almost feel bad for Frey/Ruddell, guys like that if Griffin and Curiel make it to campus. They will be like I cant ever get a break to get in the OF
