Sometimes you have to find your level

So says water.

 

[Jax_Vol]

It’s a big one.

Wooo whoooooooo!!!!!!!!! That is awesome!

Hope Frank takes the Walters State baby-faced assassin pitcher as well

 

[TechnoVol]

Anyone familiar with Myatt from Walters State, what position in the field did he play?

 

[Godfatha]

I wish him the best. I can't blame a guy for wanting to play.

It’s a big one.

“I just wanted to wear orange.”
Be still my heart, he’s one of us!

 

[rockytop25]

Like this kid already!

Like this kid already!

Shout out to Tazewell. TN kid that wanted to be a VOL like the rest of us.

Proud Walters State alumnus also.

 

[cncchris33]

Right, that was my thinking as well.

Plus, unsure of age.

But that general line of thought is if you probably only get him for one year, Drew Gilbert size, mostly DH...not typical of a CTV scholly.

To be fair, CTV is selecting from cream of crop from all across the country. Very tough to make the cut.

It would be interesting to know who he has offers from.

Well this escalated quickly in light of our conversation, today. Looks like offers from aTm and LSU, as well. Hope this kid comes in and kills it. As you msntioned, it will be interesting to see where he plays.

Yes indeed! I think LSU, Aggies, and CTV are reading our cliff-notes.

High speculation, but the stereotype DH hitting .488 is trained to play either 3B or LF. If arm is somewhat woeful, then 1B.

Stronger arms sometimes try RF.

Won't play up the middle.

Completely understand if you don’t want to put it out there But is there anyone in the know that could give us so Names to watch from our roster? (Really just want to know the core 4 Freshmen bats are safe)

Just opens up more positions for Tony to fill with better players.

Henry Ford. Would be an unbelievably good add.

Vols hosting Henry Ford from UVA.

Ok it looks like he’s a draft eligible sophomore. Slim he plays college baseball again.

 

[cncchris33]

Henry Ford. Would be an unbelievably good add.

He's a 1-2 rd pick, this year. Doubtful he comes back to school. This is a bonus money ploy more than likely.

 

[Edixon2]

Thacker makes me a little sad I liked him and wish he got more work in the midweeks

 

[TheMookieMonster]

People sure do love to use Tennessee for a salary boost in the draft lol. Can’t say I blame them and it is probably good for our brand to have our name associated with them anyway.

 

[Bigvalley84]

Did they mention Ford as draft eligible , looks like he was a freshman last year at UVA

 

[mattdingus2002]

Walter’s state is an interesting school, pitchers throw 100 but couldn’t hit the side of a barn, everyone hits tanks but strikes out a ton, and defense is optional

 

[Ttucke11]

He's a 1-2 rd pick, this year. Doubtful he comes back to school. This is a bonus money ploy more than likely.

Nvm, eligible due to a 45 day clause of turning 21 in relation to the draft. He actually won't be 21 or have completed 3 years in college at draft time, but yea this seems like a waste of time.

Hes played two years at UVA and will be 21 within the draft window.

 

[Bigvalley84]

Ok thanks , Tony’s lost a few good transfers to the draft

Why not? We let Dean play up the middle.
