Careful... she's still just a high school kid. Did she play a part? Possibly. For his sake, I hope not. He's way too young to be making these big decisions based on a relationship.

The NCAA should not even allow this to happen IMO.


What exactly could they do? Make them stay in school?

The schools are at the hands of the coaches and players. Coaches can leave at any moment as can players. There are some rules that could "punish" players for transferring, but they're few and far between. But the players get screwed when it comes scholarships (their only compensation). And 97% of baseball coaches hardly make any real money either. There isn't anything the NCAA can do.

Or he doesn't want to wait as long to get paid.

I'm leaning to this. But who really knows? It could be the girl. It could be to be closer to family. It could be that he found himself surrounded by so much talent that he didn't think he would stand out. It could have been the players or the coach(es).

All the excitement at the signing deadline for nothing. Marshall just became the cautionary tale for future draftees: "Don't get too excited about this guy yet, remember, Mac Marshall left us for JUCO." Such a stupid loophole that bit us in the butt.

This ruined my night.

LSU having one crappy week.

I think we will adjust and still be a good team but this still sucks. He could have been special in an LSU uni.

I'm leaning towards this. How many lies did he tell Mainieri just to boost his draft pay? It's really not fair to the college coaches.

Is it too late to pick up Trey Watkins?

I guess now we have to say wait until the first game when they actually play.

Isn't it always amazing how quickly these kids find another school... wonder if he had someone helping him. Apparently, the same day he told LSU, he also had another school lined up that he'll be at next week. How the hell does that happen without anyone noticing? So I guess he's not worried about his grades this year since he'll be gone in 8 months. Probably won't even go to classes next semester.

Looks like it. I'd much prefer it if he'd just left two months ago rather than stringing everyone along like this.
