Your post read as though we only recruited Pap to get Latz to not sign with Toronto. That's impossible as they were both in the barn before the draft.

You specifically said Toronto. Not MLB, or whatever team may draft him. That specificity makes it seem as if things happened in some different order than they did and for different reasons than they did.

I don't know what you mean by 'in the barn' but if you mean they both signed LSU LOI's prior to the draft, I agree. I didn't say we recruited and signed Papierski only after Latz got drafted. But signing a LOI doesn't mean a player can't sign with the pros once he's drafted.

Since Dunn knew that Latz was going to be a high draft risk he also signed Papierski with Latz hoping it would encourage Latz not to sign with the pros once he was drafted.

Again, I'm not sure what you think your 'gotcha' moment is here but nothing you've posted refutes my first post about their recruitment by LSU.
