Monster is going down swinging- .500 BA with 3 HRs and 8 RBIs in Florida series.

Best defensive SS ever at LSU will be missed. Will never forget his classic walk-off vs. South Carolina in 2024 SEC tournament, one of the wildest comebacks I've ever seen.

I'm really hoping we get him back next year... but I also get the whole leverage thing.

If he leaves, is there any chance we could take back Mikey Ryan? NC State is a solid program but Tommy Tanks can tell him why LSU is the better choice.

He will probably have a matched offer from LSU to come back next year in the 500-700k range which is where his current draft grade is. I think he’ll be back.

Not a chance we’re paying a baseball player $700k

I hope you're right. But from Milam's body language today, I'd be surprised if this isn't a wrap.

His body language been like that last 2 months. I do hope that he comes back though to help turn this team around.

He is currently a sixth round draft grade. One more year at LSU, he probably goes to AA instead of A according to Theriot. Sixth round money is around 400-500k. Baseball will get a much larger nil next year.

I get his general laid back body language, that's the norm with him. I'm taking about him being emotional in the dugout after the game.

I haven’t followed closely, has this been stated?

Baseball is a non revenue collegiate sport. Nobody is paying anywhere close to what you’d make in the pros

You can’t compare it to basketball/football.

You have zero clue

And I mean that. You have absolutely no insight as to what LSU will offer a guy like Milam
