Well, best coach on staff just got a 3 year extension in Sean Kenny

Meanwhile, Garrett Blaylock has entered the portal after graduating this past Spring. Hard to interpret if that’s trying to use his last year for better opportunity at going pro or if he wasn’t offered a spot to return to accommodate all the new guys. Also in the portal are Pitcher Brandon Smith and INT Caleb Ketchup

Day two is over

Jonathan Cannon undrafted
Dylan Ross-Top JUCO RHP commit, undrafted
Coleman Willis-Top 100ish prospect and commit, undrafted


I think Cannon will be back and Ross has a chance to be in the weekend rotation for a SEC team and make a lot of money after one year so I would expect him to make it to Athens this fall, and Willis could still be drafted in the 11th or 12th and given a good chunk of change to forgo the draft, but I think he makes it to UGA.

The rest of the recruiting class is pretty bad so no one else should be drafted.

So what I’m hearing is, once again, our pitching will carry the team and we will hope Collins and others can magically score enough runs to make the postseason

Our top hitting recruit is Luke Wagner's cousin. Also from Red Land, PA. He plays 1B. Im sure he will get a fair chance to play first with Harber at third.

We get another 1B prospect and two guys from Plant HS that werent even ranked on Perfect Game.

Perfect Game has our class 43rd right now. It will change after draft day, but we wont move up that much. We are getting lapped by the east.

Here are some of the top guys left that havent been drafted with their commitments.

Peyton Stovall||2B||Haughton, LA(Arkansas)
Chase Burns||RHP||Station Camp, TN(Tennessee)
Michael Robertson||CF||Venice Senior, FL(Florida)
Brandon Clarke||LHP||Independence, VA(Alabama)
Hagen Smith||LHP||Bullard, TX(Arkansas)
Jac Caglianone||LHP||Plant, FL(Florida)
Coleman Willis||RHP||Houston County, GA(Georgia)
Jonathan Vastine||SS||Bartow, FL(Vanderbilt)
Philip Abner||LHP||Charlotte Christian, NC(Florida)
Braylon Bishop||CF||Arkansas, TX(Arkansas)
Davis Diaz||SS/C||Acalanes, CA(Vanderbilt)
Luke Holman||RHP||Wilson, PA(Alabama)
Carter Holton||LHP||Benedictine Military, GA(Vanderbilt)
Rene Lastres||C||Calvary Christian, FL(Florida)
Drake Varnado||SS||IMG Academy, FL(Arkansas)
Brady Tygart||RHP||Lewisberg, MS(Arkansas)

Thank you to everyone around me for the unbelievable support over the last 24 hrs but I am excited to announce I’ll be returning to Athens next year. #GoDawgs #RunitBack @BaseballUGA


Ill be happy once the draft is over. You never know what team could throw at him today depending on how much they saved in the first two days.

Yeah we got screwed on Wilcox in that regard with San Diego last year. Paid him first round money in the third

Sounds like both Tates and Riley King are all coming back for another year. Pretty big

Conor will make more from NLIs this year than what a free agent contract pays since there is a cap on what you can give.

So that should give us a really solid weekend pitching corps of Cannon, Woods, Sullivan with a lineup of:
CF - Jernigan
SS - Cole Tate
RF - Connor Tate
C/DH - Collins
2B - McCallister
C/DH - Gonzalez
3B - Harber
1B - Spikes or a freshman

Also have Cory Acton from Florida to plug in somewhere

Not a bad squad for 2022 but the trouble seems to be more sustaining for 2023 and beyond

I’m not saying I want Stricklin gone, but on the off chance we do hire a new coach could/would we make a big hire and pay the man?

I don’t think we could compete with other top teams right now. Not until we upgrade facilities

Chaney Rogers coming back too. So there is your 1B

This team should be making a Super at worst next year. Put up or shut up, Strick

Blaylock also may be returning, in the portal but hasn’t made a decision to leave just yet
