I know nothing about the situation, but the other day I was wondering if they would offer him a walk-on spot.

i think he went to Nicholas State as well. Left there and went to Delgado. He went to Holy Cross as well.
I don't understand how he has any years of eligibility left...
This will be his 4 year out of high school this fall.
I'm guess a red shirt .. I wonder how many years of eligibility he has left.

If this will be his 4th academic year since leaving high school, he will have 2 years to play 2. I have no idea when he graduated high school though.

No.

All I know is that Matty's slider is a big league pitch. Not many guys on the college level can throw it as nasty.

Matty's slider is good because it looks like his fastball. They start the same, but they move in opposite directions. He throws it hard and sharp. Jacob doesn't throw as hard as Matty, and therefore it isn't the same.

You mean the bullpen the helped the team be 49-0 when leading after 6 innings? Yeah, they all suck, I'm glad they're gone.
