Good question. I wonder how many of the underclassmen players are going to stay?

Well my thinking is that when he gets to talk to them and they hear his side of his program they will probably stay if he wants them. They might not be the caliber of player he wants so we have to see really. RTR!

We sent 11 underclass men to summer league teams. That normally means they are coming back.  Baseball is almost impossible to determine who is on scholarship. With only 11.7 scholarships available they are given out 1/4 at a time. We depend on walk ons and partial scholarships to build our roster.

Why so few total schollys??  Is this an SEC rule? Or NCAA?  This was a bit of a shock to me.  Kinda ties the hands of the incoming coach.

11.7 is the NCAA limit. States with an education lottery really helps in baseball. Alabama and Auburn are at a big disadvantage.
