can somebody give me the scoop on him? I know he had TJ and missed last year but what kind of prospect was he before that?

#7 LHP in his class. Was throwing 93 in high school. Had a good strikeout per innings pitched his freshmen year at UCLA. If he's healthy he will be a big contributor.

You think JJ doesn’t know the rules for the portal?

Is that he has made it clear he wants a spot as a starter not in the pen and he and his people have basically stated this to schools that have courted him.

this is the issue though?

I feel confident Jay knows the rules a little better than Kendall.

pshh, I was told in Omaha that Jay is not a championship level coach….

No that’s not the issue with Burns. Is that he has made it clear he wants a spot as a starter not in the pen and he and his people have basically stated this to schools that have courted him.

I wouldn’t call that selfish though.

If I’m looking for a senior management position that pays in the mid 6 figures I’m probably not going to entertain an interview for the receptionist position.

He’s well within his rights to seek out what he wants in this life. Idk that LSU is in a position to to give him that promise but I’m not going to call him selfish for seeking it.

And tommy white wanted to play 3rd base.

Identifying and seeking out what you want is mature and smart and not at all selfish.

Both Burns and Holman will expect a starting spot. Jay may be able to promise 1, but not both.

I want the one Jay wants.

Apparently that’s the deadline to enter the portal in order to transfer from one SEC school to another.

Some player some day is going to challenge the SEC on that rule.

Give me an unsigned Anderson, Brown, Larson, Seo, and Milam from this class, and I will be happy.

I think LSU gets Anderson, Brown, and Seo but will sweat out Larson and Milam. I really want them all but getting Milam will be HUGE especially because of his MIF position and he's a switch hitter and can hit!
