There is a thread already made on this.

And it was made by a person with actual brain cells. So we should just stick to that one.

you have brain cells internet bully? Well then stay in your bf's thread and get out of mine.

Judging by your threads in the OT/HG threads you have absolutely no room to talk about brain cells.

Why wouldn't they be? Floyd got much better as the season went on especially back end and Morgan was always thought of as a higher draft pick even before this season.

Floyd went from a day 2 guy who should be a day 3 guy to easily being a very strong #2 behind Skenes. he's a big reason LSU did what they did in Omaha. His strikeouts are insane but even then, he was getting way better on the second half of the year. He definitely evolved and got better at the right time.

Makes sense. He hasn't really distinguished himself as a top draft prospect, so unless someone is willing to draft him and give him a large signing bonus he almost assuredly comes back.


He’s not a “top draft prospect,” but his power plays enough to get him drafted somewhere. Despite his long swing and the question of if he can get consistently catch up to big league fast balls and adjust to off-speed stuff, he runs into enough that somebody’s gonna take a chance on him.

And remade his body and showed a lot more athleticism in the field and on the bases than he did last year. He can play either corner OF spot or even 3B. That’s not gonna get him drafted, but it’s not gonna scare anybody away like it might have last year. It’s all a question of if his bat can play at the pro level.

And some team is definitely gonna give him a chance this year. I don’t know that he can improve his stock any more by coming back. His swing is what it is. He may want to come back and be a team leader and experience another year playing at LSU. But he’s played 4 years of college ball, he may want to go ahead and start his pro career if that’s his dream. And it’d be pretty hard to top his last AB in an LSU uniform being a 400+ foot piss rod in Omaha in Game 3 of the CWS finals that clinched them the national championship.

It’s just really easy for Jobert, his family, and any of the draft eligible guys to get caught up in the afterglow of the NC, before the draft, and say they want to return. But I think a few of them are gonna wind up having much tougher decisions to make than we—and they—probably think right now. Just too hard to predict until we see how the draft plays out.

This is about as clear as mud.

You might as well have said you believe Nipples McGee is entering the draft and it would have come off sounding just as intelligent.
