just might do that. Headed up that way next week. ;)

Can I go ?  ;)

If you dont mind being strapped to the luggage rack. Got 3 car seats. Then again maybe we could strap those car seats to the luggage rack.  ;D Looked at the shedule and I think it will work out where I'll get to see him play. Looking forward to it.

Got to see Johnny last week. Stayed in Staunton to watch him play. Went out to the park to watch him take BP. Game time was 7:30, Right at game time a heavy shower came in from just over the mountain and poured for about 20 minutes. Raining the game out. He said he is really enjoying himself up there and is enjoying experiencing some new things. He is living on a farm about 10 minutes from town. He is also looking forward to competing for one of the OF spots next year. Best of luck to Johnny and the Tigers next year. Really a great young man.

Just saw that Johnny is listed on the Pro Crosschecker Top 300 Daft choices for next years MLB draft. (#201 if I remember correctly).

Jacob Felts (Orangefield HS) was also on that list. (#221 I think)

I don't see him starting this year, there's so much talent and depht at LSU right now.

Last time I talked to him he's one of the 4 fighting for the 3 spots. I like his chances. Who knows though. Red and white would certainly welcome him with open arms.
