Not a surprise. He showed some glimpses in post season but his overall season was actually a step down.

I hate to lose an experienced arm like Hurd. The stuff was there, someone just needed to get him out of his own way.

Hopefully he goes out west and not within the conference.

I don't think anyone was considering him to be on the roster next year anyway, so this all seems performative.

I doubt he's pitching anywhere in college next season.

Yeah, I'll be surprised if he doesn't go pro regardless of where he's drafted, but the fact that he has a "do not contact" makes me wonder.

Yea this is a cya move but he will 1000% be drafted and sign.

Did he go to the combine anyone know?

“Do not contact” tag is interesting

In theory, that shouldn't matter because regardless of where he is drafted, he'll get a high signing bonus this year than he would even if he was picked 1st round next year.

It means he already knows where he's going. Likely shooting for a good draft spot though.

At what point will there be concern on some of these kids entering the portal?

Hell, pretty much anytime someone leaves the attitude is "see ya."

There's no reason to be concerned that a guy no one expected to be on next year's roster has entered the portal.

Can’t say anymore “He could be headed back to the Pac 12.”

So “He could be headed back out west.”

Nobody expected Hurd back. He's likely going pro. The do not contact is interesting, so he must already have a team chosen.

We've had commits in the transfer portal that committed to LSU, but still signed pro and never came here.

Who has LSU lost to the portal that is worth being upset over? I mean I would like for Moffett and Cam Johnson to have stayed, but they are still not dependable.
