Ive seen where he is rated the 5th best SS prospect in next years draft. Should start day 1 was all conf in the big xii. Will come in handy against the spread teams we face this year.

CBS projected him as the #5 SS for '16, just the other day.
Probably a 4th-5th Rd Selection, which would be historically typical for the #5 ranked SS.


This is a huge pickup for the program. I don't know if he'll start Day 1, but he's going to get a shot for sure. I wouldn't be shocked if he started the first game though either. He's a 2 year starter at a D1 school with All Conference honors.

Right now we have Diggs and Smith projected to start at SS and FS. His arrival is going to make the starting spot for SS really competitive. B/w Johnson, Diggs, Smith, Elder and Moody, we're going to get 2 guys that have proven they can compete and perform at a high level.
