re: LSU Baseball 2026 (and beyond) Recruiting Thread

Ok it’s time… Jays about to go scorched earth so this never happens again. And I can’t wait to see what he brings in

For shits and giggles, what was Schmidt ranked in PGs 2024 draft rankings?

He was 22 in baseball americas.

Luke Neiswonger, RHP, Central Michigan, FR
5.34 ERA, 6GS, 32.0 IP, 34H, 19ER, 47K, 10BB, 1.375 WHIP

I'll be keeping a running list on the first page, but will also post compiled list from time to time for those that do not check the first page.

Ok time for this thread to kick into high gear.

Project, are you able to see rankings on PG? trying to find someone to look at a couple kids and send me a screen shot of the ranking if possible.

Not in a list format. There used to be a way to look at them on the individual player page by going in originally through an older player's profile, but I think they have to be committed to someone for that hack to work.

can you look on an individual players page? like say a young 2030 kid?

thanks, was able to see them listed as high follow. it was actually 2031 kid and the ranking flipped to being locked this week so knew something was up

Longtime associate head coach Chris Hart, who has spent the last 22 seasons coaching under Avent, is widely expected to take over the program, according to multiple sources.

May not be mass turnover at NC State

We will have to focus on getting Minattee to campus. While not listed, I still think there is some draft risk to him. He comes from a heavily scouted and drafted HS program.

Schmidt 25
Nawrocki 123
Beaty 299
Cupit 343

Looking good for Beaty and Cupit to be on campus. We're probably going to grab a LHP in the portal. I haven't seen any JUCO options emerge. Garcia is likely going pro, Primeaux seems like a transfer candidate. Williams who knows, Aase who knows.

Hirsh 63
Sides 78
Stringer 256

This is a volatile group. I like our chances with Stringer. I personally feel like Hirschkorn is gone. Sides could be a coinflip. We have a couple JUCO RHPs already on the way in. A few more being targeted. We will absolutely grab a portal one as well.

Wasington 104
Murphy 106
Davis 118
Robertson 225

Pick one and back up the brinks truck. This is the group where we need one guy to pull their name from the draft. I don't think we get more than 1, we just have to be certain we get 1. And probably a portal corner OF.

quote:

Loew 330
Weinstein 179

I could see us getting one, both, or neither. Will definitely be a portal focus. I'm hoping we pull a juco guy that can help there as well. I think Clauss bounces, not necessarily pushed out but can see the writing.

I’m every class is different just have to hope the players hold true to their numbers and want to come to school. Feel stringer, sides, the whole OF group and Weinstein are guys that could greatly benefit from coming here and in 3 years get way bigger paydays
