[QUOTE="THWG, post: 578550, member: 2679"] I want to revisit this thread with only one more week to go in the regular season. Players that I think are gone after this year by way of the draft: McCann, English, Thomas, and Curry. Players who could get drafted, but I believe will come back: Murray, Willingham, both Wilhites, Webb, Waddell, and Hughes. Right now, it looks like Maxwell has the potential to be taken high enough where we might not see him on campus. The mock draft I saw had him going in the 6th round which is kind of a precarious spot because he could be a first or second rounder in a couple of years. Or, a team could offer him just enough money to get him to sign. The other HS players that I was worried about seem pretty safe to make it to Tech as of now. I also want to throw a wildcard possibility as there is a slim chance in my mind that Thomas could come back. Don't get me wrong, he is definitely good enough to get drafted and get drafted high, but major league teams are funny. They look at Thomas and see a kid with good, but not great stuff who competes his butt off. Those types pitchers are disappearing from the majors and not getting drafted or valued as highly. He reminds me of an LSU pitcher, Poche, who had an amazing college career, but wasn't drafted high enough and was undervalued because he threw 88-90, so he came back for his senior year. [/QUOTE]
