Yes, big get! One the states top arms in the 2025 Class. Let's hope he signs in November.

Recently decommitted from Ole Miss. Never seen him pitch other than a few videos online but I can only assume if Ole Miss was after him, he has a SEC arm. That is huge for us.

Will be a much easier drive for his family to come watch him play for sure.

Where did he go to high school?

[RaisingCajun08]

Live Oak - X profile lists him at 6'6" 240lbs.

This guy is one of the best Pitchers in the state. Des must have got some NIL money in the bank to steal him from Ole Miss.

Can anyone summarize Foote’s article on Cajun baseball? Interested in the whole thing, but specifically the NIL portion.

I would put money that this also was a family decision to stay local. Now his family can easily drive back and forth to every game to watch him play.

I would also think that Leger had something to do with this also. Having him on staff is worth more than we can all imagine.

Our program is at a point where kids can come here and have a very successful career and get a similar opportunity to make it at the next level.
No doubt one can argue that being top talent in the SEC has huge advantages. I'm just saying, that kids now dont necessarily have to sell out to the SEC.

Let's hope we start a pipeline with that area. My son played fall ball with 2 others from Live Oak. We went 1-3 against the top squad in the state that's loaded with commits. First game they threw Bryce Wilson (UL commit) and he shut down our whole line up. Second game we started a senior from Brother Martin then our reliever was a freshman from Live Oak that shut them down for the win.

With the MLB farm system they find plenty of kids who are still in high school. It doesn't matter where you are. IF you have the skill set MLB will find you.

Kids having an opportunity at the next level has never been an issue for us. Heck we put our first player in the MLB in 1946.
