Frontrunner to replace Lucroy?

[CajunStros]

Does anyone know who has the upper hand to take over behind the plate? Obviously he will have big shoes to fill. I know Lafleur made the most of his oppurtunites last year but I know there are a couple of others lined up for the job also.

I want to see what Dillon Guillory and Mike Petitto can do. frontrunner ?????

I would think it would be the freshman Thad Griffen from Barbe.

I would have to agree, but don't forget about Chance Harst, the transferf from Southern Miss.

I haven't forgotten about Harst. I think we will have some quality players behind the plate.

You are correct, and even if we don't use them behind the plate, we will have them to use at other positions.

We should be loaded this year. Omaha here we come

I would think Thad Griffen since he turned down the pro's to come play here.

Coach Robe said that his biggest concern is deciding who to redshirt this year.

I would expect Thad & Dillon to be the front runners.

I coached and played with chance in high school. I think he is a player and could be valuable in the outfield as well. He has above average speed and a great arm. If his bat is there, he should be in the lineup. Based on draft status, I see griffen as the frontrunner for the position, but I've heard that lafleur has the leadership skills to step in and do the job. JMO.

I see Griffen being the guy. I have heard from many sources that he is having a great fall so far. I think with Griffen cajun fans will slowly forget about Lucroy(though may be tough) but he will be a great fit. I also think Harst will see some time behind the plate but Harst may end up making a move like Tatford did at UL but wherever Harst ends up he will be a great asset to this loaded cajuns squad
