Thank you for the update. I was still holding out hope he would return next year as he has talent but not shocked he is in the portal.

……Well whatever school gets him will have told him how they will fix ANY PITCHING PROBLEMS that he might have had with the Cajuns…..oh and some NIL bucks!

we might have to sell our Kangols to get that NIL pot up a couple hundred

I know some were hoping for Jack to move along, but he had a lot of potential. Was really hoping he would work through his control issues here and reach that potential next year.

I wanted him to stay the whole time. The issue at Minute Maid Classic honestly didn't bother me. There's no way that the first time that has ever happened in our dugout, or any other college baseball dugout. The cameras just happened to be on him at that time, and some ____-stirrers on Tweeter thought it would be awesome for their personal careers and attention-whoring to perpetuate it.

Had Jack been a locker room problem, he would not have kept appearing in some key games/moments for us. He finished the season 4-3 with 2 saves, after starting 0-2 early. He showed improvement. Yes, he appears to be streaky with control, so it may just be a mental game for him to work out. But if he can put it all together, seems like he could have been a weekend starter next season, or a go-to relief guy, especially if LP leaves for pro ball.

Jack leaving hurts no matter how you shake it up and throw it out there.

He is gone so it’s time to move on, but maybe LEARN something from it

I always thought Jack seemed to get squeezed in his strike zone - through no fault of his own. If he was missing when he had control problems, he wasn't missing by much... at least in the last third of the season.

funny you say that. Spoke to his dad at the regional, he said he over thinks everything. It's all mental he said. He did say 8 pro teams were talking to him. Surprised by this transfer.

Thanks for that.

Mental issues does not always equal not tough and not water hose mentality. Sometimes, athletes put a ton of pressure on themselves, pressure no one else is putting on them, because they want to do right by their teammates, and they are busting their asses but for some reason, can't break through with the consistent results.

I dealt with it at UL, and I've got a kid who dealt with it till their sport became no more fun for her, and they moved on. It ain't always because lack of effort or lack of trying to work even harder than every one else day after day. Cajun77 has even discussed these issues here from his experience in his line of work.

I hope Jack finds success. I've been rooting even harder for him ever since Minute Maid.

One thing with NIL and the court ruling, EVERYONE gets a “taste” now where before the top flight players got paid over and beyond. It’s nuts.

I was going to say to hell with him.

But, I remember very clearly his walk back to our bench from the mound. There was no "defying orders" (as it looked to me - only my take, with little to NONE info on the situation). For every action there is a r....... This could be it. Once again though, I know NOTHING. We were on the path to beating Vandy and I definitely get emotion running very high in that moment. Interesting detail, does anyone else remember the wind increasing right before that swing (and blowing to left.) It was noted by the commentators. Talk about bad timing. Anyhow, recruiting continues and I believe we are building one bad mutha.
