RHP Gavin King of Middle Tennessee State has committed to the Longhorns. King visited Texas late last week and was the visitor I spoke of before the dead period. 

The Horns may still add one more arm in the portal.

I know a lot of you will see the stats and scratch your head, which I get. But….

He hasn’t had the best coaching…. Pretty much ever. 

He had a solid back half of the season. 

He was battling back from Tommy John surgery. 

Wiener likes him a lot.

Are there any sure-fire pitchers we could add as pitcher #3 for next year?
 

When you already have 2 of the best pitchers in the entire country, seems silly to not have a 3rd reliable / proven arm if you want to win a natty

Do we have a chance with Angel Laya

His stats aren't so hot.  I wonder if he has a lot of upside.

He has a lot of upside. He is a projected first round pick in a couple of years. Was only a freshman this past season.

Well, since we have three hitting coaches now we should be able to get him to start tapping into that upside.

His stats were impacted by a not-so-good showing in the Super Regional.

They'll likely look to make one of Walls, Winter or Crossland into the third starter.

Hope Crossland can bring it as a starter! Looked promising when his command was on point
