Feels like we’re on the wrong end of the breaks so far.
Yep, including some of Johnson's former players who I'd hoped that, among them, we might get at least one more. That's not looking real likely now, either.
Hope things turn around.

Selvidge hurts, but you're correct.
Sure wanted him on campus. Yankees will spend on him I think.

Yeah, we're pretty much where we thought we'd be. I don't know why some people are saying we've been hit hard.

LSU is definitely going to have to go poach a lefty now.

Maybe we still have a shot at that LHP though.

pitching will be the big question mark on this team they could use 2/3 from the portal
2-3 more after Reyz.

I think we will get another pitcher or 2 from the portal, but, i also dont think our pitching need is as dire as most here do, if we get labas, hilliard, and fontenot back

Thanks Adam. So far I think all of the guys drafted through Round Three will sign professional contracts.
I also believe Coach Johnson has some real plans in contingency other potential players coming in for this situation. No inside information here, just a trust in his work ethic and the strides he has made just since taking the job.

Eh, held out a little hope for him, but again not surprised
Posted on 7/12/21 at 1:50 pm to ell_13
Not surprised. He never played high school ball because of Iowa’s weird season. They seem to have always been focused on the direct jump.

Hopefully thats the last one we lose

Expected, sure, but strange things happen sometimes, and so there is always a chance until you see their names go off the board early. There was more hope with Selvidge.
And I'm including a couple Arizona guys who possibly could have been portal targets who just got drafted. It's not that it's shocking, it's just that it's not breaking our way so far.

Are we expecting to get all 3? Would be great if we did. Would still need a young kid or a portal player to step up big time.

Looking like a nice 2005/2006 Turtle Thomas recruiting class 
Posted on 7/12/21 at 1:51 pm to The Pirate King
Not sure, have heard rumors about all 3 staying

How does them being drafted mean I was reading too much into it? I didn't say they were all coming to LSU, and this doesn't change anything to do with the reason they entered the portal. If those guys hadn't been drafted so high, who knows where they would have gone?
Nice backhanded attempt at a dig.
