If Shultz don't get picked look for him to be back as a GA pitching coach. His dad told me when he wasn't pitching last year he was right on side of Thib helping call pitches. He may even get that duty full time.

It may not have been a surprise, but I think Brock not getting drafted today is a good thing for the Cajuns
According to the link above the last pick in round 10 is valued at 149K I would think Julian would need much more than that to go?
In the final 10 rounds the max bonus is 120k. And not everyone will be offered that
The draft has changed quite a bit in recent years. And i think that will continue to load up talent in college baseball. NIL is creating some(not all) leverage for some players to head to school. Crazy things happening
I thought Julian would be picked by now, despite not being listed in any pre-draft rankings. Shrinking minor leagues may play a role for players' opportunities.
The Slot Money for the last pick in the 10th round was $149K, so the money for a 11th round pick will still be over $100K. If he wants to play professional baseball, will that matter to him if he's drafted later than the 12th round? That's not great money for a minor league career of, but that may not matter to him.
Another point to consider with JB is that he's a draft eligible sophomore. If he did come back to the Cajuns, he would still have another eligibility year afterward for "leverage" in the next draft. Also another year for him to put up good numbers, longer track record, etc. I think it makes sense for him to be a Cajun next year.
