The shortstop from the blue team is incredible. Not sure what his first name is but his last name is Allen

That's probably Nick Allen. Southern Cal commit. He must be a big time player. He's only 5'9" and he's at every showcase event and all star game. That doesn't happen a lot.

Yea, just looking at him he doesn't look like much but he made a couple nice plays in 3 innings

Enlow has the same potential as Lange. It's going to be hard to hold on to him.

The shortstop Allen looks like he plays for an 11U team and plays like a mature D1 SS

Pearson walks, moves up to 3rd on base hit, takes home on passed ball. Hope y'all get to see him swing it tonight.

Storz literally looks like an MLB player already but he is really raw. Went 3 up 3 down all pop ups to center but all of the balls hit were fastballs down the middle. I feel like we have a good chance getting him to campus considering he doesn't have much polish and needs to work more on his breaking ball. I wonder if the CPM would be willing to use him as a DH as well as a pitcher

Lsu picked up another recruit tonight. I'll update tomorrow with the details. His name is branon mccabe.

ETA: I mis-read a re-tweet and jumped the gun. It appears as though he was just thanking the staff for an offer but not actually committing.

The only report I saw was Chandler Rome's re-tweet from last night. I'm looking to find something more substantial before adding him.

ETA: Just saw Jheremy Brown of PG reported it too. I'll add it back. I had it up for about 5 minutes before I took it down.

McCabe is a former Miami commit that opened up his recruitment last month. Touches mid 90s on his fastball and has advance curve according to scouts. Big time pick up. There is so much talent in this '17 class. I just hope we can hold onto a large portion of it.

Here are his HS stats: LINK
Only 3 appearances and 7 innings in 2016. 20 Ks in those 7 innings.

Not the most surprising thing. With KRob and Freeman coming back and the infield talent coming in, he was not due for much playing time.

And he seems like a guy who needs at bats at a higher level, if he is ever going to improve.

He hit well in Alaska this summer. He's got talent so it will be tough to see him go. ABs would be hard to come by this upcoming season though.

Still though, this is a recruiting thread, let's not focus too much on current player attrition here.

I don't have any. I didn't even know it was happening. This event though is where they discovered Hilliard last year. They have all the trackman tech set up, and they were able to get his spin rate on his curve ball and decided to offer him.

I wouldn't be surprised to see some commits off of this, I'll try to find more info.

I wonder if Dawson does ok at Chipola if Paul will recruit him again next year.
