Martez Walker for men's hoops under Rick Barnes. He was only in the program for one season.

UCLA, Tenn, TEXAS, TCU, Oregon State, UNC, LSU, Georgia. Texas made the final 8 for all but two of the 10 writers, and received the 3 most votes.

Ovie is from Farmington Hills, which is a suburb. Can’t think of one from Detroit proper off hand.

Great having Raja on the show. He's very interesting and VERY articulate.

A big jump to the portal.

Winfield and Navarre have already been removed from the program's online roster.

Yes, the three question marks are expected to return. I would expect Harrison to be back in the Saturday role and Grubbs to be a versatile bullpen hand. We'll see if the staff can get Ruger back into the stopper role they had envisioned for him initially. Don't forget Burns, Walker, Bing and Saunier.

This is the way.

I think we see things through the same lens. I agree with most everything you wrote with exception that predictions from the moderators and posters who seem to have access to information from somewhere, I find interesting. Recruiting tactics and rules, seem to change yearly now. It's hard to keep up.

Jeff are we expecting to return and expect contribution from Volantis (duh) Burns Flores Rerick Rugar??? Harrison??? Grubbs ??? Am I missing anyone? Are the “???” Expected to return?

Rerick and Jason Flores are the two names we've heard most among the rising sophomores.

I gave you a Hook 'Em for a positive Mavs reference and your avatar. Love me some Bar Rescue!

Wasn’t this someone you previously said the staff was expecting a big jump from in year 2 along with Rerick. Understand things change

Easton Winfield and Bryce Navarre entering the portal brings the total number of outgoing transfers from the 2025 team to 15.

Bryce Navarre entered

LSU baseball is kinda like Miami football, if they hadn't hit bottom while Butch Davis was cleaning up the program and kept winning after 2001. LSU has little to no baseball history before Skip Bertman. It makes their program résumé more impressive when put in the proper context.

Everyone must show respect to the face mask made of Legos.

Cruz is coming along. He's very much viewed as a big piece for the future of the Texas offensive line. When he'd be used would depend on the situation. In a pinch, they'd probably go with Robertson since he has more experience, but we've heard nothing but positive reviews on Cruz.

It's updated in the OP, but here are the 14 outgoing transfers from the 2025 squad: C Oliver Service C/INF Cole Chamberlain INF Carson Luna INF/OF Sam Richardson INF Jaquae Stewart OF Tommy Farmer IV OF Will Gasparino OF Donovan Jordan OF Matt Scott OF Easton Winfield LHP Chance Covert II LHP Ace Whitehead RHP Aiden Moffett RHP Easton Tumis

@Blake Munroe Have to think that other player hitting the portal is Duplantier right?

The thing is the HI's are probably right at the time they are made, but nothing is final until it's final. Some people get excited about them some don't. For me I like to read the news, but predictions really not very interesting to me. A top 3 and maybe a heavy lean is enough and those may not be very accurate.

You are probably right as long as no concussions are involved.

Is it safe to assume that any players entering the portal now (or in the last week or so) are players that the staff was hoping to keep? Seems like if the staff wanted them to leave, they would have been encouraged to enter sooner. Chamberlain - Reported the staff preferred to keep him. Moffett - Sounds like he got a Draft assurance or two. Winfield - Makes sense to me that he would want more playing time but timing seems weird.

Probably a good move. Good luck young man
