I was thinking the same after Coastal game. Given performance against a top 10 team, he will get looks from P5 schools
Or drafted.

Drafted….. with the command of his three pitches, and throwing between 92-95mph… he’ll be in double A ball soon.

I would agree on drafted. He leads one of the top conferences in strikeouts and conference wins, that will get noticed.

Wonder what he would throw as a max effort guy in a 1 or 2 inning situation. Could go SP or RP in the future.

The fact that he was throwing 92 in the 9th inning …. shows he can maintain that velocity now…. also just really impressive for him to throw strikes with three pitches….. unless there is something I don’t know about him, he’ll be an early round pick…..

It's an understatement but it's amazing to see the difference in pro level pitchers in college versus ordinary level guys. The ready for the pros guys just about mow down the opposition and the others often serve up batting practice.

He's might get drafted...my thinking is between the 15th-20th rounds. Not sure about getting up to AA ball quickly though.

*Update* Forgot there's only 20 rounds now. That may change my thinking...Definitely will get picked up as a FA (probably not drafted this year)

We almost need to go at least 4-2 in the last 2 conference series. Fine line between finishing around 4th versus 10th

Looked at the results from the Ark State games, particularly conference games. In a few of their wins they scored a bunch of runs. If Hamilton does his thing on Friday night we might have to outlast them on the weekend. Kind of a common theme I know. We absolutely can't have a stinker this weekend and drop 2.

I'm not sure if I've ever watched a baseball game being played in rain that hard. It's hard to tell on TV but it looked like it was hammering down
