Les Smith (not) Transferring?
I heard a rumor that Les Smith plans to have surgery on his shoulder this offseason, sit out next year, and then transfer. I hope this ain't true. Hopefully this is all false. Man, if he leaves, we'll be hurting in talent and emotion. Cause the guy is gonna be a stud. Someone say it ain't so!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tell me its an idiotic rumor that doesn't hold an ounce of water.

Well he obviously hasn't asked for his release because he was in Sunday's game. If the coaches knew he were thinking of transferring or he had asked for his release they probably wouldn't have played him. So as of now this is probably rumor.
That being said I wouldn't be surprised if we see a large change in faces of our baseball program from this year to next year. Just like we saw a huge change from last year to this year in faces on the field. For instance we have 6 outgoing seniors. We have signed 6 new athletes. But we are looking for 3 more signees for 2010. Depending on the draft if we don't lose anyone 3 people off of this years team will have to go. So don't be surprised to see a few people leave this year.

But there's absolutely no way that Les Smith is one of those people we would think of replacing. He's one of our few consistent producers!!!

Yea I understand that for sure. I wouldn't not try to run him off either. I hope he doesn't decide to leave.

While i think your thought process is very logical, we are still trying to get into the tourney. We have to put our best 9 out there to win, and him in the lineup gives us that chance. I dont know that we are in a situation right now to sit guys cause they may not be here next year

I would doubt he would have surgery performed here while on scholarship. I believe university insurance pays for much of these procedures. Were he considering transferring, I would think he would do so before having surgery. That way his new school pays for the surgery.

Why did you quote me on this? Your response doesnt really have anything to do with my post does it?
