Congrats to the players and their families. Lots of hard work leading up to putting their signature on that dotted line.

Tant Shepherd signed with Texas yesterday as did Cole Green.

Cole was also selected as the Number 1 player in Texas by Inside Prep Baseball.

Congratulations Cole!!!

Congratulations Tant and family.

Congrats to all the players!!

Just wondering, as a question only, a college can still take back a committment after it's been signed? For academic, legal, etc. reasons. Not trying to say that any of these kids have to worry about that, but it's not like once a player signs, he can slack off in school... I'm assuming????

Once again, congrats. This will make for a really fun few years in the Big 12 and other conferences when concerning baseball.

Can we keep all the congrats to PMs? This way people can get to what the threads are about and not have to agonize through all these parents fictious feelings for other peoples kids. Thanks

Coolarrow - that shot was unnecessary. I believe each congratulations message was sincere and as near as I can tell, each congrats was from someone that knows the family ... not a parent of the boys named.

This is a community and many folks work very hard to advance EVERY boys dream/chance to go on to college ball. Someday if it happens to me, I'm sure we'll get the same messages not because they know me personally but because it is one more big pat on the back for DFW baseball and the people in THIS community will know our son worked hard for it and earned it.

I'm PROUD to add my congratulations and best wishes to the boys and their families. Oh, and I don't know a single one of these boys/families personally, but it makes me realize the dream is a little closer than we might have orginially thought.

I'm right there with ya, splitter.......

Did you expect anything but #1 from a TIGER? What did you think... a DBAT player would get that? haha

Congratulations Derek and family!

Train -- we just didn't expect this from a Coppell player!

Coolarrow -- looks like you're the odd man out. We do live in a democracy.

Congrats to Tant and a very personal congrats to Cole and his family.

Recently, I had an opportunity to meet the Green family, for the first time, during our Rusty Draper Memorial Tournament. This family was extremely generous during this tournament and it really showed me and a lot of those involved in this tournament how giving/loving and supportive this baseball community can be to folks they don't even know but yet know their "story"....

And to Coolarrow:

This week is a time to rejoice as many players are seeing their hardwork and talent payoff and I for one would like to extend a congratulations to those I have known throughout the years and maybe some of them I have lost touch with and this sometimes is the only form I can extend those congrats. My congrats also extend to those I have never met but have had the pleasure of getting to know via these threads .......

If we get to the point where we can no longer feel we can do this (congrats/kudos) on this forum then it truly is a SAD day in baseball land.........

CONGRATS TO ALL WHO HAVE SIGNED AND GOOD LUCK TO THOSE THAT ARE STILL IN THE PROCESS OF FINDING THAT COLLEGE BASEBALL HOME/FIT.

_______________________________________________

First, I was not implying that the parents of the players are getting on here to promote their kids. Just that parents do not truly care about other peoples kids.

Second, if you want to congratulate every player and coach on this forum, feel free.
Please just create a new thread to do it. You guys are worse than a remediation English class about getting off topic.

Off topic? That is your opinion.

Congrats to these players is on topic, IMHO.

Perhaps you don't care about other peoples' kids. But don't project your apathy onto others.

And that would be a "remedial" English class, perhaps of which you are in need. {Had to beat Collikar to the punch.}

I got it, I will just change the Thread's name, since I started it and then maybe the Congrats are not considered "off topic"

True: But if I can get 62% of you to split your vote, even a coolarrow can stick around a while longer.

Yall win... Congratulations!

I guess I can be cynical sometimes. (or is it be a cynic?)

Congratulations! Kudos! (thumbs up) Way to go! Attaboy!
Hooray for you! We're so proud! (pat on the back) We knew you could do it! For he's a jolly good fellow!

- I know I will hear the same when my son finds his new basball home. (did I leave anything out??)

Way to go LIONS! There's no excuse if you guys don't win state.

Anyone from Texas know where Blake Beaven is headed? MLB???

Congrats Lions!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing that picture, I think that is one of few times I have seen baseball players show their teeth w/their smiles, now that is pure JOY..

And a special Congrats to JP and to his family!!!!!! BTW does Furman let Freshman students have cars? If not then JP my son would love to keep your wheels for you during that time....

Good Luck to all this upcoming Senior Season and much success during your college years!

Beaven has "issues" (nonthing serious, just some simple technicalities) that he must take care of before he's allowed to be offered.

DMN says Beavan to OU -- which will never happen. but congratulations anyway!

This just in-

Blake Beaven signs with OU
Kirk Pritchett signs with SHSU

sorry PD-

I didnt read your post before, but i'm right there with you, no way hes at OU.

Yes, the info is correct! Blake has signed his letter of intent with OU this morning. We are very proud of Blake and very exited.
