Multiple outlets have reported that LSU right-handed pitcher Thatcher Hurd has entered his name into the NCAA Transfer Portal with a "do not contact" tag.

Hurd, a former UCLA transfer, was a key piece in LSU's 2023 National Championship rotation but struggled this past season.

“Do not contact” means he already knows where he’s going.

Can't blame him as he wants to check out all $$$$ options vs pro offer. Wouldn't happen if he didn't enter the portal.

I can blame him for not throwing strikes. That's why he's in this situation in the 1st place.

Or he's very satisfied with his new payout and is required to do so under the terms of his new agreement.

Do not contact? Why enter ??, maybe he will change his mind. Was just not consistent this year.
