*****Portal Watch

It’s nice to know they consider the Vols as a quality bullet point on their resume. Great PR in the transfer portal market.

I do think eventually we will get lucky and one of these guys will make it to campus and it’ll be awesome

There was that Skenes guy… we’ve had a few forego the draft. Wasn’t Arvidson a draft risk?

Skenes wanted a guaranteed starting pitcher spot when we had Dollander, Beam, and Burns. Wasn't gonna happen. If only we had known about Burns sooner.

I think he was.

Ryan Galanie (would’ve been on the ‘24 team) is currently hitting .293 in AA with 7 bombs. .270 career minor league hitter with 26 bombs.

We would’ve even more dominant with him on that team

I barely recognize the name. The talent that Tony and Elander nit picks through is amazing.

We dodged a bullet there.

Somewhat. Burns didn’t get the guarantee, but wound up getting pissed when things took a turn for the best of the team.

Is this implying Becker as well? Hadn’t even heard him thrown around with us. Did I miss something?

Basilio will breaking in with this news any minute now.

Galanie was a portal commit from Wofford, but wound up getting drafted in 2023 (he was an extremely significant draft risk, FWIW). We ended up replacing him in our portal class with a rather unknown guy named Billy Amick

He was close to getting Brady House to campus. That wouldn’t been amazing.

Advincula please.

Tony ain’t ******* around!!

 

[mattdingus2002]

Sign me up...

It’d be cool to have a guy like what Clemson had 2 years ago

Think the “more” just means we are getting more than just Ford

Sounds like we aren’t in on Becker, so must be someone else

We also looked at him as more of a catcher than pitcher

Hopefully Rutger's pitcher Landon Mack and Virginia's Henry Ford

Right! I viewed him as a light hitting catcher w/above average arm strength. Looked like his face caught on fire and he put it out with an ice pick.

A late bloomer.

I gotta blame the Air Force coach
