It was purely a personality issue, he just didn’t fit in. Right now his only option to play next year is JC. I don’t exactly remember but I thought it was right after Cannizzaro. But Gautreau was there
No. Coaches knew about Land a long time ago. Once the season was over, they started on getting the 2021 roster in shape. Seems our players announced at the end of school but our coaches knew long time ago.
2B Scott Dubrule from Jacksonville University has signed with us. He’s a grad transfer. He’s been their starter the last 2 years. Excellent hitter and defender. He had the walk off hit versus Florida in February. Immediately a starter for us.
No doubt Foscue and Westburg are drafted and signed. JT Ginn 99 percent sure he’s gone too. Signee Austin Hendrick is gone. Blaze Jordan is also, he’s signing no matter the round.
But we will sign grad transfers to plug holes.
And to me this one hurts. MIF Mason Land is in the transfer portal. I saw him a lot in fall ball and he’s good. Lemonis has stated he’s a future 3 hole hitter. He would have likely been the starting 2B.
Maybe he wants to be a SS? I don’t know why he’s leaving.
This is a watershed year. I know Arkansas is going after high profile grad transfers. It is cut throat. Do you want to win big? Teams have to fill the rosters with immediate help like Arkansas is doing. But we will need lots of help for 2022 bc we will lose a ton next year if my prediction holds...
Bryce Brock, Josh Hill, Austin Kelly and Hunter French. Sadly, development of players is over for next year and maybe the next. Hopefully, we will get one or two back from junior college after they developed a little.
