Morning Scone, Ep. 2324: BOOM! LSU Lands Ace Pitcher In Transfer Portal | Jay Johnson On Fire!

[Music] [Music] [Music] okay what’s up everybody good morning welcome to a Saturday edition of morning scone presented by Brock the Baton res Clinic Parish Construction and Roofing if you need orthopedist you go to Brock if you need a roof you call Parish there you go oh by the way new soft teas as well got like three different ones there’s one that’s like Kelly Green of this one and then there’s like a charcoal gray one with the parish logo right here really good dude love it uh the our merch game is coming coming strong right now um okay y’all what’s up good morning glad to have you board with us here um Ellis you got a huge transfer portal pitcher commit on Friday night we’ll talk about that here in just a second let’s see boom all right good okay and I think I don’t think I know um we have also fixed the uh I recognized what the issue has been with Facebook so again uh weird for those who are Facebook uh viewers thank you but I’m I’m trialing for a couple of weeks going live from my um profile instead of my page so I have my professional page and then I have my personal profile well you can go like the profile and follow there long story short Facebook has changed its uh monetization and sharing policies I think it’s going to be more beneficial on the profile I’m going try it for about two weeks and we’ll see how it goes so if you’ve been following on Facebook on the page make sure you go like my profile it’s the profile is the picture of me and Erica in New York is my is my profile picture I’m going keep sharing morning SC to my to my page but for everybody who sets set notifications on Facebook make sure you’re you’re following the the profile as well I know that’s confusing so I apologize and to everyone on YouTube good morning I also have fantastic news uh I’m gonna wait here a second because I want to let the audience build but I think I think I think I think I have figured out how to get you all to hear the parish jingle and all other music and sound clearly I think I figured it out um so let me talk about the big story of the day real quick we’ll say our good mornings and then I’ll get to that so of course the big story LSU has landed pitcher Devin Sheeran so Devin Sheeran from Mount St Mary’s which may not sound like an awful lot but this is a guy who from the end of his high school career to um you know I was looking at his perfect game profile when he was about 6’2 well now he’s 65 to 45 um Joe Doyle who is a a major league Scout you see a lot of his stuff on social media Joe he’s with um I’ll tell you the organization real quick Joe Doyle is it’s um uh FSS uh plus so it’s like a um it’s a baseball analytics uh deal so he’s he consults for MLB anyway uh Joe Doyle this is the writeup Joe Doyle had on Twitter Mount St Mary’s right-handed pitcher Devon Sheeran is in LSU Tiger projects immediately into their 2025 rotation up to 9 98 up to 98 slider is disgusting my number eight overall nonraft eligible portal Prospect he is a a huge impact yet for Jay Johnson and the Tigers number eight overall portal Prospect that’s not draft eligible yo so uh Jay Johnson and The Crew doing work I guess I can say this now and I don’t think that you know this LSU and staff wanted all this out but I kind of hinted at it if you’ve been here for different shows throughout the week um huge recruiting weekend for LSU and I was told there’s four guys on campus one of them is Gavin killan the shortstop from Louisville one of them is Zack root the Lefty from East Carolina I was told it was Kellan and three pitchers one of them being Zach R and clearly Devon Sheeran is one of the other pitchers that’s on campus this weekend and he committed Friday night so um when you start to look at so this is a replacement for cam Johnson I mean know cam Johnson is so the same class both are big Power pitcher now Cam’s from the left side and Shear’s from the right side now cam had it coming out of high school and shear and clearly developed it this year um at at Mount St Mary’s and it is fair to say well he was in the uh the Mid-Atlantic and he wasn’t in the SEC or whatever but he struck out 109 hitters in 70 Innings of work so you got a big a power arm with really good strikeout stuff who is a guy that you would project uh into the rotation for LSU next year and we’ll see how it all works out so and the other thing too is the walks number is only 109 strikeouts 32 walks so you know if you’re following at home you’ve gotten Zack Cowan or excuse me Zack Cohen from wford and now you’ve got Devon Sheeran from Mount St Mary so two pitchers that you would assume in losing jump and hullman right and herd uh that’s that’s two experienced starters right there that immediately factor into the mix along with Chase Shores uh Kate Anderson uh Griffin Herring provided he’s back which you know if he is and then obviously if they can get Zack root the Lefty from East Carolina you absolutely take that commitment and [Music] um and then there’s also um Myers the pitcher from uh Jacob Myers who we talked about I think we talked about Jacob Myers yesterday uh or did he did Myers go into the portal I can’t remember we talked about Jacob Myers yesterday my you know what my apologies if we did anyway if you don’t know he’s kid from Santa um who wasn’t much of a prospect throughout his high school career started the pop his senior year went to Nicholls and last year was a freshman All-American uh huge strikeout stuff the problem is the walks he led the country in walks uh this year Myers did but Myers hit the portal and that’s a guy who very much is on LSU’s radar as well so um here we go man uh LSU and Jay Johnson doing work getting uh getting pitching and I think we all realize you know we thought coming into this past season that um uh you know they pitching they lead with pitching while the offense caught up right and unfortunately the pitching didn’t really do the job um until really the last you know six weeks or so of the Season that they really started to get but it it was a struggle to get to that point and so Jay’s trying to fix that in a hurry um okay all right let’s say some good mornings thanks for being there as always YouTube please smash that like button uh subscribe to the channel Facebook like the Matt musona Page share the post all right glad we got some Facebook comments coming in I see that which is good to see uh let’s say some good mornings Gary good morning we seem to be getting pictures what about hitters um well first of all let’s be excited about the about the really that’s like you gave him Mouse cookie what’s a glass of milk but Gary I get the question so you I mean and you do very likely have to replace your your entire infield except for Steven milum right so I do understand that um you’ve got Luis Hernandez committed from Indiana state who’s a first baseman catcher DH power bat um that’s great news again you got Gavin killan on campus this weekend and that would be major like if LSU comes out of this weekend with a commitment from Gavin Kellan that’s the number one player in the portal and that would be massive that’s your starting shortstop milm stays at second maybe cak plays third or you go in the portal for a third baseman um I don’t know if y’all have been paying attention at all but blae prer just keeps getting accolades and the more people I talk to the more seems like he’s going to show up on campus again prer is the and I think I think if prer shows up on campus that he is your primary catcher next year even if Brady Neil is back prester is a jco All-American he’s on the National jco Collegiate USA team um he’s a guy that can hit for average for power and he’s a better defensive catcher than than Neil So prer showing up on campus would be huge you’ve also got Kate Aron Bey who’s you know one of the top catching prospects in the country as a he’s a high schooler who signed with LSU and um you know we’ll have to sweat him out in the draft and see what he does but um huge uh opportunity for uh for LSU here so it’s coming it’s coming just be patient Robbie said Gary K enjoyed the pitches for one second Jacob good morning uh Kobe what a game last night I saw Tennessee rally with four in the ninth but y’all this is the problem with Tennessee Tennessee can hit we all know they can hit um the problem is like they don’t really have a onew punch on the mound that’s going to cost them um especially if they lose the winners bracket game um which I hope they do uh they’re not coming out of out of a losers bracket they would their their path is just slugging their way through Omaha and and I don’t I mean look they were down they were down they needed four in the ninth to win yesterday against Florida State so um I I don’t see their path I don’t see their path through Brett deow good morning oh there’s me I was trying to tell you all the software was taking a while to get going uh trivia Carter good morning uh Jerry G said blow out the cartridge old old school Nintendo people know exactly that reference Jerry just celebrated my 40th birthday on Friday all right Jerry hope it was a great one man cheers to you happy birthday here cheers to 40 and uh and many many more just keeps getting better man hope you had a great celebration last night man happy Birthday Robert hope the trip went well it did thank you for asking Robert yeah so we were in uh jacksonv not uh not Jacksonville I’m sorry Pensacola so we uh we darted over Thursday stay the night Thursday and then um woke up Friday morning went over to Cardiology had a good appointment with Dr bruman there St I’ve told yall status quo is a good thing in our world where um you know we don’t expect one day to go to the doctor and Drew’s Harman magically to be healed uh you know he had he had two heart surgeries uh while we were at Texas Children’s when he was a baby when he was born he end he had five surgeries while we were there I had three in his first five days of Life uh and then that was in July and then when he was born of 20 of 20 um 14 and then in November is when he had his his two heart surgeries um but we know that that was just uh you know a patch effectively um and it juror’s issue wasn’t resolved the question or our objective I’m just trying to make this as as simplistic as possible is wait as long as you can just treating him medically uh you medicine and supplements and all that stuff to let him keep growing as big and strong as he possibly can so he’s in a much better place if and when he ever needs another surgery because if he needs another surgery uh it’s probably going to involve a valve replacement which um the problem with a valve replacement especially with a kiddo that size is your body’s going to keep growing and if you put an artificial valve in then every time you outgrow the valve you have to keep replacing it so the hope is let him get as big as he possibly can so that if you do end up having to put an artificial valve in he can rock with that artificial valve maybe forever so and who knows where science will go in medicine so every time we go to the doctor and it’s just like hey status quo keep doing what you’re doing see in six months that’s that’s a huge win so anyways yes great great visit yesterday Cody you can get anything to work if you hit it hard enough man chance depressing hearing Ben McDonald called a World Series game without LSU in it uh Ben’s great though man but I hear you it’s just it’s just disappointing that LSU isn’t there and and especially considering and how about North Carolina y’all they got another walk-off win it was my point like I picked Carolina um someone asked me I thought I think like I’m definitely cheering against the SEC teams A&M would have been my pick but without Shane sadeo without Brad Montgomery I mean you’re down your number two starter and your best player it’s hard to imagine making it through this field like imagine if LSU last year didn’t have Dylan Cruz and Ty Floyd that’s kind of that’s kind of the comp of of of A&M this year losing those two guys in supers so um I sometimes it’s just your time and I think for North Carolina it could just be their time um and I think they have the team to do it so Shelby good morning highlights of Shar or nasty 98 M hour two seamer leite stuff which the story on him yeah so again I can’t say I know a ton about him except that you know if I was looking up his perfect the game profile yesterday and um he was like cut like check this out this was the interesting thing so again he’s just finished his freshman year so he was not ranked nationally and he was he was a third baseman coming out of Reading Pennsylvania um and he was 62 200 PBS so this kind of tells you the story so he was a third baseman at 62 200 lb unranked out of Reading Pennsylvania he goes to mount St Mary’s and now he’s 65245 throwing 98 so clearly he hit a big gross SP they put him on the bump and Kaboom right he Strikes Out 100 what was the number you know Strikes Out 100 and um was it one one 20 and 109 strikeouts in 70 Innings of work I mean shh it’s a strike it’s strike out and a half per inning pitched now I get it it’s at Mount St Mary’s that’s in the MAAC it’s not the same as the SEC so let’s see how that transition goes but a when Scouts say that’s a a you know a a quote disgusting I told you it was um Joe Doyle who I’ll read this he said up to 98 slider is disgusting that’s not me saying it that’s a guy that’s a baseball Scout analytics guy so disgusting slider throwing 98 that make you pretty good I mean think about Griffin Herring who throws 94 95 with a really good slider how tough he is now throw 98 with a disgusting slider like it uh Damon good morning strongside good morning how’s Drew’s doctor visit just went over that thank you so much for asking man I appreciate everybody’s well wishes and prayers Jesse uh what do you think happens in the CRA contract situation does he get a new contract y’all I can’t wait to get back on air on Monday so I can talk about this and go like deep on the record on it um I for the life of me listen I love Alvin chra and I know someone asked about this yesterday and so I I talked briefly about it so chimra when the saints extended him they gave him a 5year $75 million deal okay and um the Saints uh this year are on the hook the cap hit $7.9 million and they have an out after this year so no I’m I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry sorry forgive me forgive me the C the number this year is 18.5 okay and next year his cap hit after the their restructure goes up to 29 million with a dead number of 10.1 so basically to say it as simply as possible it doesn’t do you any good to move on from the dead number this year is the same number as his capit so Cam’s on your team this year no matter what next year his number if he’s on your roster it’s 29 million if he’s not it’s 10 million so if you cut or trade Alvin chra after this season you save $19 million so you have to decide you want to extend Alvin Kamera and and chimra obviously doesn’t want to go into a contract year he doesn’t want to go into this year without long-term stability because what happens if he gets hurt or doesn’t have a great year well you don’t want a down year and a contract year which I totally understand from Cam’s perspective but if you’re the Saints this is a declining player over the last three years Alvin cra’s numbers have dropped and he’s been injury-prone and he’s 29 like you would be certifiably insane in the NFL in 2024 to extend a declining running back at 29 years old like no you’re going to play this year on on the final year of your contract and then assess after the season like it’s The Prudent thing to do you don’t get a new contract because of what you were you get a contract in the future about what you’re projected to be so no you do not extend Alvin chra and I love Alvin chra and he’s going to be in the Saints Hall of Fame and he’s the most dynamic electric player the Saints have ever had he leads the organization in career touchdowns he’s awesome and I love him and it’s been a joy watching him play but you also have to be realistic like that would be the kind of deal that’s put the Saints in their awful cap situation year after year after year no you do not extend Alvin CRA right now Larry Garner Jerry G sorry I didn’t come in Friday on both platforms to announce it but better late than never all good all good Jerry happy birthday man go B what’s up uh guy Brooks good Saturday morning hope all went well with the appointment it did Bob Collins good morning do you think LSU baseball or football is in a better place for the next five years and why um good question um they’re just so different it’s hard to say Apples to Apples I would probably say baseball because Jay’s a younger coach and you have certainly the resources uh to win you’ve won a national title more recently in baseball you know football the look the SEC is a grind in baseball but more but look four teams made it to Omaha and Georgia was a national seed was one win away from getting there and making it five so I don’t know that you’re going to have five teams from the SEC I don’t think you’ll ever have five teams from the SEC in the college football playoffs so I think it’s harder to get through the grind to the SEC and football but I think both are in a great situation good question uh murder giraffe what’s going on Hollis aons why are Tennessee fans so insufferable because they’ve never won anything and when you’ve never won anything and you pound your chest like you have won something it’s it’s like good sit now uh cinjun country good morning picture of Drew and his KN on Facebook needs to go on your wall almost started crying uh he loves oh the one walking down the hallway yeah man he so Drew loves Dr brummond um like we drew does very well with schedules like he needs to know his daily schedule he needs sequence he needs order um and so he knows that it he doesn’t get to see Dr bruman all the time um and so we go every six months so we have a countdown that’s like that will be like 30 in 30 Mondays we’ll just say Monday because it’s whatever day we’ll say like in 30 Mondays just and then every Monday he’ll KCK down in 29 Mondays like he so he and it’s so funny Drew is a chatter box man like Drew just sits there and talks to himself all day long he repeats things he sees on YouTube and the iPad or what he hears a say he just he talks and talks and talks all day long and it’s not annoying it’s just his sweet little voice and he just talks talks talks Dr bruman comes in the room and it’s just like he’s just staring at him just doesn’t say a word it’s it’s he’s like almost like he’s Star Struck it’s kind of hilarious to see uh that’s a big boy stick him in the tight H room Peter good morning hey Brandt know it’s impossible to answer this question with the rest of the SEC teams losing their best players the playing field should favor LSU next season maybe in back to Omaha yeah BR it’s it’s impossible to answer because the portal factors in everywhere right I mean look at look at LSU this year you lost seven of your everyday players only returning Tommy White and you were a blown save in the ninth inning away from hosting a Super Regional and you’re probably back in Omaha so it it’s so hard to project for next year until the portal window closes and you see and then the draft passes you know who’s here right um it just it matters like how different is LSU offensively if bear Jones returns you know what I mean Gary keep doing it Jay and staff we will be back y’all big recruiting weekend I’m just telling you they got Gavin killan and three pitchers on campus one of them Zack Ruden the other one is Devon Shear one of them is Devon shearon who already committed so that’s why I said man look early next week you’ll have good news like if LSU gets a commitment from Gavin kin this weekend we’ll see what Zach rot decides to do but um you could be coming out of this weekend feeling really really good about next year brambo so is the defensive line from s a really reclassifying you’re asking the wrong guy man um so um jaem Stewart is who he’s talking about by the way so in 2026 he was the number one player he’s now the number three player nationally for 2026 there’s a ton of dudes from Baton Rouge like um uh so Jem Stewart is number three over this is overall in the country not position this is this is for the class of 2026 so these are guys who are going into their junior year high school so jaem Stewart defensive lineman from a is number three in the country Lamar Brown who’s an offensive lineman from u high is number six in the country and then Bradford bla Brad from Catholic was top 10 where’s Blaine Blaine’s now number 15 in the country and that’s bla Brad was injured and miss last year so if he gets healthy this year he’ll move back up the ranking so you have three players in top 15 in the country from within two two in Baton Rouge and one in New Orleans at at St a which of course with Frank Wilson other just got a pipeline there I don’t know if Jem Stewart is reclassifying I had heard that but then again but but I’m not the guy to ask so um if he does um all right here’s a report from on three that he strongly considered reclassifying that was back in April so we’ll see I’ll ask Jay Dixon on Tuesday when we have a chance to talk to him uh Ryan Pike is so Kentucky minus one and a half over under nine and a half it’s at nine and a half small Mak over um I’ll tell you all that I was not on with mince and muso on Thursday obviously to get my picks but I did like the under and North Carolina were two of my plays and both of those hit and the third was going to be Tennessee on the on the the money line which was close but hit um today I’d go under in Florida Texas A&M it’s 10 and a half I’d go under [Music] um and uh 160 is a big price to pay on A&M but I’d probably lay it um I I’d take the I I wouldn’t touch Kentucky NC State um that that’s just me but I like the under in Florida Texas A&M um and and 160 is a big price if you don’t want to if you don’t want to pay it um but the the one I like the best would be A&M would be under 10 and a half Ryan Prager is going for M today Florida for a bulk of this season couldn’t hit um I know their offense has gotten going but you’re going to go face an ace like Ryan Prager I think prer really handcuffs Florida in this ball game um and A&M without Braden Montgomery uh as the table setter offensively that offense might struggle a bit I’d take the under that would be my best play would be under 10 and a half with with A&M in Florida um let’s see Shelby what happen with Camden wicker good question Shelby you know because that’s obviously the name that I have heard I know hannie had mentioned Camden wicker on on his show uh D1 baseball had put it out there I think I think they that all those guys just had the wrong the wrong Watford pitcher I think it was it was Z it was Zach Cohen and everybody had the wrong Watford pitcher so um anyway so Camden wicker Still Still uncommitted uh and I look I said on AFR to whatever extent I played in um uh in that confusion I apologize again y if you were here I was live on the show and I got a text and I just read the text on morning scone and I I should have waited I should have edited more like made a call just to make sure but I was l i was live on morning scone and it was a I’ll put it to you this way it was the same source that gave me the exact Regional draw that LSU had if y’all were here and I told you I was told LSU was going to play wford in a two3 match up in the chat Regional paired with Tucson the same person that gave me that is the one who texted me about wicker just again it was just the wrong wford pitcher but anyway um so wicker just is still uncommitted Iran sead Deborah coward good morning Miss watching live this week helped with vacation bible school so excited to see how many of the transfers will show up on campus yeah Deborah well like for example um Zack Cohen Devin Sheron these guys are underclassman so they they’re not draft eligible so they will be here and Devon Sheeran’s got two more years on campus so that’s the the good thing you could tell him too hey look even if you come here in 2025 you don’t win a rotation job you C you can give us length you know in in the middle Innings and then in 2026 potentially be you know a weekend or a Friday night guy even so you got two years there Zack Cohen you got one more year with him or potentially two if he stays for a senior year um the one the one you’re sweating right now is Luis Hernandez but I’ve been told they kind of feel at 7030 he’ll end up that’s the the Slugger from Indiana State 7030 he ends up on on campus uh Kelly gross good morning Bruce good morning may sound crazy is there an argument that Jay is the best recruiter on campus I don’t think that’s crazy um I think that is the case he’s and it’s because it’s just he’s maniacal in the effort like when l you lost to North Carolina I was like five of the next six days he was in a different city I mean he just immediately boom there is no decompression there is no downtime it’s just go and that’s the only speed he knows man I know we’ve talked about it before but you know Jay doesn’t have children his wife Moren is an awesome support system as well so Meen worked if you don’t I think we’ve talked about this Marine worked at Oklahoma in the football office under Bob St so she gets like Big Time athletic expectations like she’s all in on that as well so they’re a great team kind of supporting each other in that respect where this is like I hate I I don’t mean to say it like there like it’s like their their their baby their child I don’t mean to say it that way because that’s the wrong way to say but I think you understand it’s it’s a it’s a mutually agreed upon priority right does that make sense so yeah I mean I absolutely think you I think he is the best recruiter on campus hey Dad good morning Jerry good morning Gary good morning Zachary options at pitcher will be crazy um yeah and ain’t done Aaron fontain good morning hope everyone is doing well listening to SC while putting up a new fence all right Aaron God bless you man uh Mark good morning who are the guys you said were on campus so uh again I was told there Gavin killan the short stop from Louisville and three pitchers well clearly one of them is is De Sheeran he put the photos out there of his commitment Um Zack root the Lefty from East Carolina who’s kind of the the the consensus number one pitching Prospect in the portal um is on campus this weekend as well and well let me say this was supposed to be on campus this weekend I was out of town I haven’t confirmed with anybody that he’s physically here but I would I would assume so I don’t know why you cancel that visit I think if he had we we’d know and then I don’t know who the third pitcher is but I was told it’s three pitchers and Gavin killing the short stop from Louisville and clearly one of the pitchers was Zack rud and the other was Deon Sheeran I don’t know who the third is Justin hosy Austin K good morning Justin Franks Jay’s going to give Ryan cak a chance to start somewhere in the infield they had to have that convo the last few weeks he was highly recruited yeah and look there were times if you remember when brazwell was struggling that they gave cerak a run it short um so I think cak could could have the opportunity to win the job at third base um if you get Gavin Killin if you don’t get Gavin killan then I think cak and milm are both competing for the shortstop job and whoever loses that probably kicks over in play second and you go get another infielder out of the portal Wendell Norman kurk Taylor uh North Carolina has a horseshoe up there but or maybe it’s their T like maybe they’re a clutch team Kirk like I don’t know that I would say horseshoe as much as I would say when they’re up against it they’re unmoved by that so you know I mean to a tomato tomato uh I don’t know that’s probably not the right way to say it Rocky morning Matt I hope you guys a great trip better results for Drew we did thank you Rocky Gary hoay for Drew uh Jerry uh how does Virginia pitched a Honeycut with a runner on third two outs first base open bottom of the ninth gorilla what’s going on Kevin Toler hey my friend what up Kevin glad Drew had a great checkup uh any new bourbon in the collection have you had Rio I’ve not had Rio and um new bourbon I mean in the last couple of weeks um uh my buddy Rooney over at sunshine your hometown John Deere dealer in Louisiana did get me a a Whistle Pig Summer Stock which I I drank on night cap a couple weeks ago which was a fantastic por um and trying got anything else and then this week I opened up Heaven Hill uh the select stock that Brett deg Gro who I know is I think is well I saw him earlier I don’t know if he’s still here that he scored from me from up at at the The Distillery so I’d say those two are the newest but honestly um Kevin like I don’t I don’t drink a lot of whiskey during the summer it’s just too hot so like if I’m going to drink whiskey during the summer usually it’s a whiskey cocktail um or at at night when I’m inside at night I might sip on something but a lot of times during the summer if we’re outside by the pool or whatever I’m usually just maybe a little tequila with a with a little you know little lime wedge so um Kirk Omaha businesses are sad LS fans aren’t there uh so Kirk we had um uh the the the guy from rockos the jello shot guy on AFR on Wednesday um because they’re doing a really cool thing with with the food bank even though LSU is not there they had even though LSU is not there they had uh fans calling to see if they could buy shots for LSU um and so what they did was they uh they essentially just turned it into a fundraiser for the food bank where people can just go buy a shot right really just a donation to the food bank um and so anyway I had him on the show and he was talking about how like whenever uh LSU was in the the regional against North Carolina he’s watching like sweating out the ninth inning and the other bartenders are like man what are like why are you so worried about this one game and he’s like you don’t get it like you’re if they’re not here you’re you’re all losing thousands of dollars personally in tips and different things like that so yes no doubt man Brian Dion in Colorado bandwagons are terrorizing social media what do you mean I haven’t seen what Dion’s been doing sorry I’ve been out the last two days Reed rule excited about the potential with the new pitcher isn’t it also fair to be worried about the major jum competition from Mount St Mary’s yes which is why it’s also great that he has two years um Jaden burrow continue prayers for Big Dog Drew thank you man appreciate it very much Mac watch some highlights of the new kid arm is legit do you throw 98 with when Scouts are saying it’s a disgusting slider yes yeah so Brett asked to shear and figure in as a starting pitcher backend closer I mean you got your closer already um so in in in Chandler dorsy he was South Florida’s Ace closer and that’s who you’re bringing in basically to replace Aiden Moffett to be your back of the bullpen guy they thought Aiden Moffett might develop into that role this year and it just it didn’t pan out for him so Chandler dorsy has been a back end of the bullpen guy a closer and a really good one at South Florida so you went and got your closer he Devon Sheeran’s coming here to be a starting pitcher uh and if it’s this year you know if he if he’s in the rotation this year he’s your midweek guy or if you know if it happens next year either way um that’s that’s why he’s he’s here oh yall please smash the like button if you would subscribe to the channel as always brought to you by Brock the Baton

going Parish Construction and Roofing you’ll be singing this in your head all day all right one more time Kirk Parish Construction and Roofing at Parish we’ve got you covered from the top of your roof all the way downish construction and roing Parish buil Parish buil from your h.com I love it it’s so good it’s a good little diddy it’s a it’s a good Diddy um Jesse post cheesy but it will stick which

I just want you to stick it in your brain that’s what I want um all right let’s see oh really A&M throwing lamin wow wow Justin lamin starting I show you like I was out well that may change the way I feel uh but the under I can’t believe wow I mean they must really feel good about about their offense against Florida even without Montgomery wellow that’s that’s surprising that is a real risk man I mean there’s just no such thing as like you can pitch off in the regional round Super Regionals Omaha M you go win game one wow that’s surprising anyway Kevin similar to SK SK we know you play catcher you think you can pitch yep Timothy good morning from Florida Jeff Club Ruckus speaking of ruckus I’m going to Ruckus as soon as the show’s over see y’ allall over there uh Gabriela reninger you think we’ll see more baseball commitments early next week that that’s the Hope Gabriella so if you do uh this weekend or Monday then this weekend went well so just ran through who they got on campus but the the the big one the one you really got to hope you see is Gavin killan I’ve told you everybody’s he’s the number one player in the portal the short sh from Louisville um he’s the top 15 Prospect for next year’s draft any position um he he’s your plug-and-play short stop replacing Braswell um hitting in the top third top of your lineup somewhere Factor on one 12 three kind of depending on what happens to everybody else but that’s the big one the really big one Glenn Lori Randy dabd what happened to Facebook so we’re on Facebook Randy so um again long story short for those who are seeing us um I moved morning scone on Facebook from my professional page to my personal profile so it’s it’s it’s long story but it’s essentially how Facebook shows and features things so I’m triing this for about two weeks so I’m going to go live on my uh personal page not my Professional Profile where I’ve been for a long time I go live on the page even if you’re not a friend on my because you’re limited to like 5,000 friends on Facebook you can still like my personal page or my personal profile because it’s in professional mode I know this is confusing and stupid so I’m going to go live from the profile and share it to the page so if you’re still you can still go to the same place that you’ve always gone and I’ll share it there but you really need to go like the or or um or follow or like the the profile and set notifications because that’s where it’ll be popping up live Gary and his defense horrible o line deficiencies oh car are you talking about CRA Bo you think Jay gets pay raise or is he looking for one uh he got a after the Championship last year he got a 7year 12.5 million contract paying him between 17 and8 per year I think Jay’s okay for now win another championship they’ll look at it again for sure Eric finally caught up on the helmer’s interview third Bas story was incredible have you thought about doing similar player exit interviews with every sport yes some of them are just tough Eric um like we always always always reach out to every football player at the end of the season that’s going into the draft Senior Bowl and some of them because their season just transitions right into onine draft season it’s hard to get a lot of them uh and some of them are just not as accessible baseball guys quite honest are easy or it’s small team some of like will helmer’s might might be done playing baseball forever he’s kind of just chilling until the draft so it just it’s easier it was easier to get a hold of him it’s easier to get a hold of malazzo than it is some of the guys who like as soon as their season isend boom they’re in Arizona California where Florida training for the draft combine they got you know agents on it’s just different so but yes we we all always try just you just don’t get everybody B how do you not walk Honeycut there um Brandon uh Matthew got there we go is there any chance Jay entertains other coaching jobs Gabriella look I know Jay was asked this week about about the Texas job and he was asked Point Blank did Texas contact you and or was there did they reach out and he said no um I can absolutely tell you that Texas did reach out um Texas reached out to Schlagel vatello Eric beckage at Clemson who is the Michigan coach who got them to the World Series Finals and Jay to gauge interest I even know they were offering in the neighborhood of two 2.5 million a year um and so they aim big and look even schle so Chris Delan the ad at Texas was the ad at TCU who hired Jim Lo Nagle at TCU so what what I was told was Texas wasn’t going to do the thing where they fired David Pierce and then began a search they it was going to be like a a fire higher type deal so um you know the what I was told last week is that the four guys I just mentioned all told Texas thanks but no thanks and that Mark Wazowski from Oregon was their next Target so if they move on on from Pierce or maybe because they didn’t get one of their top four guys they run it back with Pierce I don’t know I’m not at Texas I don’t cover the team every day but that’s what I was told is that Mark Wazowski from Oregon would be would be the target if Pierce if they do fire Pierce um but but Jay is not going anywhere uh Austin Matt had a busy week didn’t follow much news Jay’s comments about Texas seem like non denial denial yeah there you go I just just answered that one Blake Parish nil deal for wicker let’s get it done I think they got enough pitching Now Blake um um happy to do Parish deals happy to do it um um Jason H morning from the barber shop what up Jason Kevin wish I had the laser focus Jay has in my professional life it’s crazy true James Brew Matt uh what do you think about Jay’s comments about how to build a roster in the portal era versus skip stays I’m not sure I heard him uh James candidly like being out the past couple of days uh I think I probably missed some things so I’m not sure exactly what he said but I mean it is very different you know and then when skip was coaching there was also no roster limits skip could have 50 guys on the roster if he wanted to and so you didn’t have to make decisions about I mean yeah you had a balance 11.7 but then tops came around and that helped tremendously because you could get guys this was after skip obviously with tops or near the end of skip but um you know you had to uh you had to manage your 11.7 but kid from Louisiana want just wanted to play at LSU and wear the uniform you could bring him and develop him for 2 three four years I mean a lot of those guys became great stories at LSU that in this era would never have an opportunity to play you’d have to go to Nicholls or MCN or somewhere like that and then play and then try to transfer back so just it’s just different not saying it’s better worse right wrong up down left right it’s just different Ryan uh rooting for every ACC team to beat the SEC completely agree um let’s see Jesse Bobby bu’s lawnmower odds on bear I I’ve told you all along I think bear Jones signs um the power is undeniable the power to all Fields that’s what the that’s what the pros value now um strikeouts are at alltime high in Major League Baseball because the analytics show you’ll take a one for four day with three strikeouts if the one is a three run Homer and so when you have power to all Fields like bear Jones does uh there’s a premium on that I think he’s a he’s a top three round guy someone’s going to pay him 800 to a million and he’s going to sign that’s just my opinion I hope not I hope he’s back but I think he signs Aaron good morning go tiger as brazwell is out I would assume so yes ESP if you get Gavin killing brazell’s out but I think they encourage brazwell to sign either way Seth Virginia pitching a honey cutter is the same as wake pitching to Tommy last year uh dgt ma gaming Virginia Coast cost the game you don’t pitch the honey cut yep Michael unit morning Matt uh do you know what all the cryptic messaging that gymnastics has been posting for the last two weeks is all about I haven’t seen any of the cryptic post like what on Twitter that LSU gymnastics posted about let me see um um this the Champs are calling oh 10 days out there it is uh interesting I guess we’ll find out today right something something’s coming today I don’t know I could ask ask Jay Clark and again probably wants everybody to be surprised um let’s see vicious I can’t believe youc all right everybody’s talking about UNCC and Honeycut uh okay I’ll try some Mario um tequila tuo and lime Elijah steel how of you drink beer Matt um I mean I love beer my problem with beer is for me when I drink a beer it’s never a beer a beer is 10 beers you know when I’m drinking something that’s and I like craft beer too but like if I’m just drinking like budlight for example and Bud light’s a great sponsor and I that is if I was going to drink a light beer that would be my preference I never liked Kors light Miller light’s okay I guess I know some people prefer it uh I’m not even a huge Ultra fan I know that’s a mockler product like if I was going to drink a light beer I would get Bud Light um but I can never just sit and drink but I’ll give you an example last night we got back from from Houston not from Houston excuse me from Florida and we put Drew to bed Eric and I stayed up and watched um buying London where’re we’re trying new real estate shows I think I mentioned that to you’all yesterday and I I sat there and probably drink about three Bud Lights while we while we watch the show and I ate some Sun Chips um you know I love beer the hard thing for me with beer is like if I at at 4% I got to drink a lot of beer and so it’s just like I continuously drinking I’ll drink like 10 beers um maybe not 10 but you know what I mean um no but I but I love beer um like really love beer one of the reasons I started drinking whiskey is because I drank a lot of beer and was like this is so many calories there has to be something better I can do so like that’s why hey look here’s an ounce of whiskey or two ounces of whiskey that I could I could sip for 30 minutes or so and it’s in the same time I’d have four beers right um Can UNCC win a game without it being a walk-off it’s I think it’s their time time man uh big money LSU guys sitting right behind him plate last night uh Kirk where do gri fitting out I think he the same role he’s just a he’s a back of the bullpen guy maybe a setup guy um Tennessee will beat North Carolina 12 to two UNC hasn’t scored more than 12 runs the game a long time I don’t think Tennessee has the pitching man I think that’s going to be the big I’m telling you it’s going to be tenness Bugaboo um perfect give youall some breaking news in a second Jordan Gilbert on AFR thir Thursday at 4:30 how about that I’m excited about him man I think um um you know we um The more I’ve looked at BL Baker’s defense um you can look at how impactful the safeties are we think linebacker because he’s a linebacker coach but um I think um um when you go look at and I did a segment on this on AFR maybe two weeks ago or so um it was an like impactful transfer thing I saw and I went started looking in and I listen we may be more excited about guys like CJ Daniels or zavon Thomas because they’re offensive players or you know the need for some of those interior defensive linemen to be really good players I mean I get why there’s other guys people might be more excited about but if you go look at Blake Baker’s defenses at Missouri like the leading tacklers each of his last two years were were safeties and it makes a lot of sense that you’re going to get guys around the ball and free them up to make plays and you needed a dramatic improvement from a year ago where you had Andre Sam and major Burns Burns playing in the star position I think suits him better downhill near the line he him out of coverage and if you got Jordan Gilbert you know may maybe Sage Ryan back at your safety positions I think that’s a natural position for sage Ryan and Jordan Gilbert is a proven SEC safety so I think I think that’s a big get man anyway so Jordan G so Jordan Gilbert’s going to be on with us at 4:30 so we kind of connected and seems like a good kid man seems like a really good good dude um okay oh man sorry all right I’m focusing my apologies my apologies um anyway that was Jordan replying about what time we’re coming on so all good um so I’m looking forward to that condo Bubba Smith Courtland Ryan Pike you’re telling me I got to cash out my bet I’m not roll with it man I still think listen the public still favor is over he talking about the College World Series public still Still Still favors overs I think there’s value in the unders um I love the under and even look North Carolina and Virginia if you looked at their regular season series they played like a 14 to1 game like a 12 to 11 game and I loved the under in that matchup and I like the I still like the under I don’t think Florida is going to hit uh today against aam but I thought they were going against Prager so um I would probably still keep it I’d take the under uh murder giraffe uh Jason you head to Ruckus grab the Jordan Ones I am uh the denim Jordan 1es um Tero was there candidly Tero was there last week sent me a picture of them and I was like get them for me now and um I guess it was before they they officially released him and he had already left before he got my text and so um they’re opening at 10 and I want to go run over there and snag them so they’re just I’m a 13 and like there usually aren’t a lot of 13s and so they go quickly um so anyway Kirk reminds me of the oldtime commercials from the 90s really personal I can see the rot greeting you at the door uh can never count on Florida State to win an Omaha that’s true why does it seem like Tennessee gets so much rope that tantrum down third Baseline didn’t even get a reaction let alone warning and Tony was pitching fits all night um been a few weeks but the host of wwl’s Friday High School football show passed away after battle with cancer rip Brad Lumin very sorry to hear hear that man thanks for sharing that Peter yeah definitely condolences to uh to Brad and and his I don’t know Brad um but but condolences to um to him to him and his family for sure um Gary you can never have enough pitching so true uh Ellis you had a ton of pitching this year uh do you think Trevor Lawrence is worth the new contract yes you have to have a quarterback he shown he can be great um Shelby I don’t want Tennessee to have any success but I love watching good talent Christian Moore is a darn good talent he is kayb morning Matt I like the addition so far can’t wait to find out about root from ECU as well as yep Louisville shortstop Gavin killan golf South with the new quarterback contracts car doesn’t look that bad anymore well Sunshine getting 5year 55 million per is crazy it’s just that’s the going rate and when you look at at Lawrence I mean he’s I and I don’t think Trevor Lawrence getting that is crazy I mean you have to remember he he was drafted by a team that was he was drafted by a team that was picking first overall because they were atrocious um not everybody that goes one overall is in the Super Bowl year two like burrow um so you look at it like this and you go okay you draft Trevor Lawrence he’s three years into his his career right this would be year four so you draft Trevor Lawrence and he gets you uh he gets you into the playoffs in his second year first year you’re terrible he you’re three and 14 right gets you to the playoffs has a 4,000 yard season get you into the playoffs uh 25 touchdowns eight picks we’re all like okay that’s the dude we expected year three they um he he missed a game but they went eight and8 with him as the starter so similar to the year before when they were nine and eight made the playoffs but you go eight and eight with Lawrence he throws for 4,000 yards again 21 touchdowns the the interceptions ticked up it went from 8 to 14 so that was a problem but he’s been consistent um uh he’s he’s been consistent the last two years and so you’re ask yourself this question it’s a similar it’s similar to when the Phillies paid Aaron Nola they gave him a $100 million early because they knew if you wait another two years at the end of his contract he’s a free agent you probably triple that number and if you’re Nola you go okay well I could take the burden hand now or do I keep pitching for two more years then what if I decline what if I blowout what you know anything and so then you don’t get that plus also it g when you sign the contract early it gives you an opportunity to sign another big deal right so that’s the thing for Lawrence Lawrence could have played this year like he could have played out this season he could have said hold on I’m gonna wait revenue is gon to go up there’s some other quarterback that’s going to come reset the market so I could wait another year and then sign my extension after this season let’s say I go have a 4500 yard season and we go 10 and seven and and then you have to pay me after this season well the number went up but if you’re Lawrence right now you say I take the Bird in Hand now and then when this contract ends I’m going to get another contract after that as well so if you’re Jacksonville you say okay we’re balancing that risk do we pay him now according to the market or do we wait another year when the Market’s gone up even higher do we think that he’ll continue to be our franchise guy and I I get it like you drafted him one overall he’s shown you he can get to the playoffs he’s shown you he can be an elite quarterback um so I it’s always a calculated risk every contract is is a calc a calculat risk when you’re giving a long-term deal but in the NFL the way you structured as well how much guaranteed money is in there matters so I have no problem with that whatsoever I wish the Saints had an opportunity to sign a guy like Trevor Lawrence Adam Parker yeah cars deal is atrocious because because here’s the difference you had you had a this is the point I haven’t continued to make about car you had a 10year sample size of evidence to show you what Derek Carr is and he’s not he’s not a Super Bowl winning quarterback he he’s not he’s not an MVP player he’s not you had 10 years of evidence to show that with Trevor Lawrence you have a guy that’s 20 uh 24 23 24 years old who’s three years into his into his career and got he went got you from the number one pick to like going three and 14 is a rookie to the playoffs in year two like I I get it like The Arrow could be like the the ceiling is very high with Trevor Lawrence like you know what the ceiling is with Derek Carr and it ain’t that especially at this point in his career uh does Florida make a run a noal I do not believe so Travis uh Courtland not putting a ton of expectations on the football season I want to see the direction they’re heading uh let’s see Raymond has both EBS and safeties or did Baker split them up again um they are split so Raymond’s coaching corners and Jake um Olsen I know it was going to hit me Jake olssen came over with Blake Baker from Missouri he’s coaching he’s coaching the safeties um Mark Allen if successful who gets a head coaching job first slone or Baker um I’d say baker just because he’s he’s been a DC already at the SEC level um you know but I do know Sloan wants to be a head coach like I know that for a fact um and and that’s I don’t think that’s breaking news or anything I mean most coaches want to be a head coach um they want that opportunity to run their program but I know Joe wants that so um and he’ll get there I he’ll have a ton of talent he’s a smart guy really good quarterback’s coach as well as you’ve seen and I think the offenses will succeed I think he’ll get that opportunity I think the question is do you get the do you go from OC at LSU to like UT SAA or are you like Dave Aranda going to Baylor I think that’s that’s really the question um Robert pots Matt just joining what’s the transfer update uh yes so LSU got a commitment um LSU got a commitment Friday night from Devin Sheeran a picture from Mount St Mary’s hi what are you doing you want come say hi Dad show hey come say
