Currently, 22 on the roster, including Seniors: Salami, Pierce, Sutton, Felter, Rhodes, Gbagbe-Sowah, Zilinskas, Needham

IIRC, Felter is back, not sure about the other seniors.

I think Zilinskas has another year. Not sure about Needham.

Why is he not sought after for other coaching positions?

Wonder if DJ Durkin will get another shot after his debacle at Maryland.
Guess that Bo Pelini is too toxic too?

He’s older and doesn’t carry the same buzz as Belichick or Deion I’d guess but Cignetti is older too. 🤷‍♂️

Sounds reasonable to me. If we’re at the point of everybody wanting to be paid, they better be showing potential to produce.

Not really.
How many coaches get hired and aren’t expected to show potential immediately?

It's about the players prioritizing $$$ over anything else these days

Gotterup is indeed playing in the Sentry starting Thu in Hawaii. Greyserman is also entered.

Great lets hope he worked on the driver during this time off that to me is what is holding him back and Greyserman has been on the cusp of winning a few times now

If their Rivals listings are correct, Johnson, Williams and Onuoha did not have any other P5 offers. Wonder what happened with the Luman brothers.

And Bethea? IIRC he was considered a very good signing out of HS. Haven’t heard his name much since.

Also- looking at the number closer TH averages 47 BB and 197 K over 162 games- that is insane Pete is 69 BB 157 K not great either but almost a .340 OBP vs a .320 OBP
TH may not even be as good in the OF as Pete is at 1B.

I don't believe Pete should get an average above $25 mil per if the deal is 4+ years but for us fans to keep trying to say that Pete is on the downside or we would rather have someone else- I have yet to see a single player on the market that is not already signed with us that really is that much better than he is. And- what he brings to the lineup and the character of them team as well.

I would rather have Pete than Bregman. But he could have been secure has he accepted the Mets offer a few years ago. It’s gotta be on our terms now.

Because they don’t have to play those games…we aren’t Iowa or PSU. Not to mention Iowa is paying in the neighborhood of $200K per year to top recruits

I get it. You weren't kidding from your previous post. It's really becoming a money game. It's a shame. It shouldn't be that way. What happened to honor and competition? I'll be honest with you if this kid is looking for the highest bidder,I really don't think we should invest in him. Throw what we can reasonably afford to do,and if that's not enough, then sayanara. But if this is all about" what you can do for me" and not about teamwork, then maybe we are better off without him. One good.
habit, we have as a program,is that we take under the radar wrestlers and turn them into all americans, ala Yara, Perotti,Shawver, Bulsak and DelVecchio. Great hs wrestlers, but certainly not blue chippers like Bassett.
