Any doubt it's way worse than the class from last year? I'm sure some of these guys will step up over the course of their careers, but not a single one has been a major contributor this year outside of Jordan Rittiner.

P Chris Cotton
P Zach LaSuzzo
P Jordan Rittiner
P Forrest Garrett
P Michael Reed
OF Alex Edward
INF Mason Katz

Definitely a lot worse....although the story may change as far as Edward is concerned.

Cotton is a walk on
LaSuzzo got an offer late in case of losing others to draft
Rittiner has done well
Katz will eventually be a good player as well as Edward
Garrett was highly rated and is coming off major injury
Reed has been somewhat of a disappointment

9-19 4 rbi 4 strikeouts in the last 6 games....not setting the world on fire but not bad for someone with limited playing time.

PM built us back into a National Title winner from smoldering ashes. He has earned an extremely long leash.

he's done, is doing, a great job, but isn't "smoldering ashes" a bit of a reach?

When you look at how far the program had dropped off when PM took over, I don't think it is. We were the Premier program in College Baseball for a decade and then turned into a team that struggled to make the SEC tournament.

LaSuzzo has come on strong as of late as a situational lefty out of the pen.

Forrest Garrett in my opinion should have been redshirted this year. The staff tried to bring him back as fast as possible and he only threw 4 innings.

I think we need to save assumptions until they "need" to be producing rather than in mop up roles.

This Mainieri guy is starting to worry me. Could he be the baseball Les Miles?
