Question on Ginn

[Bulldog from Birth]

Do we get him for 3 years? Or will he be old enough to be draft eligible after his sophomore year?

 

[SyonaraStanz]

He's draft eligible after next year according to Thunder and Lightning.

How is he draft eligible? I work with a guy who played college and a lower level pro ball and he says he's here through his Jr year.

Baseball has all sorts of special rules and I can't keep up with any of them.

Anyone know for sure?

It’s Jr year OR 21. Ginn is about to turn 20. He’s a year ahead of his classmates.

Im assuming Tanner Allen is the same. Isn’t he draft eligible this year?

 

[8dog]

He will be 21 before the 2020 draft so he will be eligible. And i think its technically being 21 before the draft signing deadline. Tanner allen is the same way with this years draft

 

[TheStateUofMS]

Damn that sucks but at least we got him for 2 years.

 

[8dog]

Im not sure we would have gotten him otherwise

I think you are correct.

You're probably right. And 2 years is a lot more than we ever could have hoped for. Best thing that's happened for MSU baseball as far as one signee passing on MLB in a long time.

Agree. Are there any recruits we're on for next year in JT's situation?

Those type guys come around once a decade

Tanner Allen is draft eligible. This is a new trend And will be seeing this more and more.

Who was the one we had last decade? I think even once a decade is a huge understatement.

 

[WutheringDawg]

As far as baseball players coming to State after being drafted in the first round - I think we're on once in the history of the program.

The only guy I remember stepping in and pitching like this from day one is Eric DuBose.
