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

I am more talking about the overall picture vs. a single player.

Hurd is signing a pro contract, this literally means nothing

Yea this is a cya move
Yep, with the do not contact tag probably meaning he doesn't want to deal with other teams contacting him until he sees what the draft brings for both him and the incoming LSU pitchers.
Doesn't absolutely mean he is gone if the draft is not what he wants and probably gives him a tiny bit more leverage with any team picking him.

he will 1000% be drafted
yup

and sign.
I'm more 90% on that.

Did he go to the combine anyone know?
These were the guys invited to the MLB combine, Hurd was one. I did not find any writeups on how he did. There were rave reviews of Jones, however.
Thatcher Hurd
Luke Holman
Griffin Herring
Jared Jones
Gage Jump
Justin Loer
Christian Little.

Thanks for 2023. He shined at the right time at least.

I think the overall picture is fine. Need to get Herring back or at least add another lefty or two.

Ok, who cares! Don't let the door hit you, where the good Lord split you!

Did you watch the team last year?

Hurd ,Neal, and Kling all were going to take a NIL cut production doesnt match expense.

Donated his 2023 NIL check to the BR Food bank. Not everything is about $$$

Appreciate his big time contribution for a title last year. He will be just fine in life, Hurd seems like a quality guy.
Posted on 7/2/24 at 11:05 am to Broski
May be back. He’s playing to be drafted but wants to keep options open especially for NIL.
Posted on 7/2/24 at 11:14 am to Broski
Good luck to him and always thankful for a guy that contributed to the Natty in 2023 but let’s be honest he underwhelmed the majority of the time he was here.
Posted on 7/2/24 at 11:17 am to Broski
I'm thankful we had him last year in Omaha

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.

Makes sense, don’t think he would have made the roster anyway. Wish him all the best.

Not a very good take considering Hurd was a very important reason we even won a championship last year. I'm not sure you can just put both these players in the same sentence together when you compare Harris career accolades in college. Not hammering him just saying this is a dumb take.

I get what you're saying, I considered Hurd a draft risk not a flight risk.
This is disappointing news to me. As with the others I pull my tail off wanting them to succeed and poof, gone.

This transfer portal has to be a nightmare for coaches trying to have any continuity in building a program.
