Jack Walker is going to be hell to face the next few years.



I think you guys are really giving too much credit to Jack Walker because he's a Louisiana kid. He's a good player, but it's not like we just lost a Kumar Rocker type player to MSU. There is a reason he was not even close to a draft risk. If he was from another state people wouldn't be talking about it much.

He'll be a solid pitcher, but not some unhittable ace.


ETA:

I think Lansville has a higher ceiling and will be a better player in the long run. He's got more heat and a devastating curve.

Looking at the draft results from other SEC teams and incoming recruits. it looks like we are on par with Bama and Tenn. Well behind Vandy, Florida, and Ark. and Miss St. that needs to improve starting next year.

How’s he compare to Grant Fontenot? According to PG Rankings, Grant is #2 in the state and Walker is #12.

Seems no one is really talking about Fontenot.

Jack Walker is a phenomenal pitcher who will be a Friday ace.

frick metrics. It's a pox on the game.

Walker is a ballplayer. I want those.

ETA: He may not start off as a Friday ace because some idiot coach thinks the fireballer or the 6'5" dude is better. I hope that doesn't happen.

Have you ever heard of someone not giving up a single extra base hit for an entire season? I think he warrants every piece of credit he receives.

He’s AJ Labas.
