Who are the 2-3 impact freshman arms?We will know in a little over a week who is coming. There are some really solid dudes in this class that would contribute if they make it on campus. Top guys. I am biased and hopeful so I will not name names.

Actually, it's the opposite when you are going to be a senior. Seniors have zero draft leverage, so you often see them sign for pennies (the signing bonuses for seniors are like 5-10k).
So you are basically weighing going back to school to collect a NIL paycheck and sign for pennies next year vs taking the six-figure signing bonus now.
Bingo. Remember Mike Antico? He got pennies because he had no leverage. There is a reason guys that can sign do so as early as possible. That is the most leverage you will ever have.

A little birdie told me it is 75k and goes up from there.

Yordan is out for the season.
Ha. He will be back in 27 if we are lucky. The astros doctors are a chop shop. He will have a hook for a hand when he returns.

Let’s not play both sides of the fence here. You want to implicate all of them rather just the 4. Who are the players you know?
Yes, you’ve said that multiple times about Schloss. Most fans that care about that sort of thing are likely well informed and know that going back to TCU Schloss has found and/or developed talent. You could argue that once he got established at TCU there’s been better talent at TCU than Texas. If you were to use MLB as the measuring stick.
If I’m interpreting 64 analytics properly, Tennessee has had 19 guys enter the portal. And I see a recent article from the Knoxville News that kicks it up to 22. LSU and UGa last year were at 14 and 15, respectively. These are amongst the best rosters in the country. I’d presume they are at or near the top of the NIL food chain. All these guys are not leaving due to the lack of natural ability. They also aren’t all leaving because they’re supremely talented. Teams are churning 25 to 33% of their roster. I’d wager even the best have similar guys to those you reference.
Do you even new roster limits bro? This was obviously going to create chaos. The reality is we may see the last class of freshman come onto campus unless they are truly elite. Freshman recruiting classes will dwindle and the teams without solid nil will end up being feeder schools for the haves. Moose out front and all that.

It's always the hands. Even when they have 5 fingers, they always look the same. Then there is the lighting. Nice try AI. Fuck this dystopian nightmare we have created. Ole Ted K was right.

Off days suck. I just cleaned the house, did the dishes and am grinding through several loads of laundry. Then I have to see a mock where that aggy dude is our pick. Fuck this shit.

Thoughts and prayers.

When you show up to optional practice and realize only 1 other kid showed up and there are 3 coaches for 2 boys.
Then you see your kid dominate.
Then you realize the coach running practice wearing Padres gear is the Texas 1st base coach.
Sucks that may be the last one of those but it was fun.

Sanchez is going to have 14 strikeouts and lose.
Hummel doesn't look ready at all.

Well it isn't hurting his stock to go out there and do that against top players.

What if they bombed them with less than reported MOPs and then sprinkled in more of the smaller ordinance. Now they are awaiting them to dig some shit up before unleashing more MOPs? Nono I am regarded. They absolutely telegraphed their move and then failed. Fuck me, we used to be great. Before the adults were in charge.
/giving waaayyy too much credit to their mental capacity

That wasn’t all known at the very beginning of that story.
If they’re all trustworthy journalists with impeccable sources then it was a mistake to have Natasha break it. It casts doubt on it.
Politicians lie all the time. Journalists are not supposed to.
You are right there. Sooo close. Keep following the logic and see where you end up.

Little T’Boo threw a no no today to get us into the semis of our 12U wood bat tournament.
Last inning he had a slow dribbler to the 1b side he ran all the way instead of throwing to 1B.
Grinning like a Cheshire Cat when he struck out the last batter.Opposite endo of the spectrum for me this last weekend. My 10yr old is playing up in 11u for the short summer season and pitched Sunday. They lost 16-8. He gave up 2 earned runs. Umpires were horrendous behind the plate and in the field. Really random strike zone and they missed 2 times the other team didnt touch 1st on the way to second base. The defense was atrocious with 10 errors. He pitched for 70% strikes and had a bunch of ground balls that should have been outs. What a brutal game. Only a few more weekends of this trash and we can rest for fall.

Eh, I'm going to dinner with my wife. Ana the russbot is clearly not interested in backing up "his" assertions, so y'all are gonna get your wish.
You are arguing with a hard R retard. I dont use that word lightly. He is a thief of oxygen. Just put him on ignore. I know who he is irl and I promise he cant hurt you. Just ignore him.
