Yep. Not really surprising. I hope he lands somewhere he likes and works on his swing.

From a Bulldog family. Has to be a hard decision for him.

Yea i agree. Im not one to "pile on" but poole needs to open up a spot next. I know some folks wanna believe he has potential, and i love his family (met a few), but dude's swing is real bad.....like those automatic out pitcher at-bats in the majors where its clear hes lost bad. I cant imagine that ever improving much.

Yep I agree. he was one I was hoping would be first. People need to take the family out of it. Everyone takes it personal if they know the family. Hardly anyone has an entire family of ******** and overall not nice people so The he has a nice family doesn't hold water. This isn't little league. Everyone has a nice family. Can he help us win or not? I think he can't and if the coaches think he can't then he's gotta go. He can go play anywhere else. He'd do well at smaller schools.

We could trim some fat and open up spots OR continue to get our **** pushed in by LSU. I choose the former. Any of us could do what Poole did for the majority of sec games. We need some difference makers. On top of that, you can't really blame Cann. He gave them WAYYY more opportunities than I would have given their performance. You can't say they didn't get a shot.

So is this something a player usually decides on their own or do the coaches have a role in this. I thought the kid started off strong, and maybe needed to work on his swing this summer in summer ball, but had some potential for next year. He was only going to be a sophomore. I was a little surprised, so i wondered if maybe the coaches just start sitting the guys down and saying, hey things aren't looking good for you here.

What was his avg? 160-210? How many were k's or dp's? He was totally lost and in many cases, he would have done well just to keep his bat on his shoulder.
