I have known Dupree for a long time he is a very good kid, with great parents. Kevin also a very good baseball player and has worked very hard at the game. A lot of times kids that are very good at an early age have a lot of expectations thrown on them Kevin falls into this area IMO. MTSU is a very good D1 baseball school IMO they would not sign him if they did not think he was very talented.

I really don’t know what overrated is……. Overrated by whose standard fans, other teams? MTSU does not think he is overrated, I don’t think he is overrated; I think he is a heck of a good ballplayer. I respect your opinion and think you have the right to it. But at the end of the day he is a 17 year kid, trying to make his way. If Kevin makes it in baseball is totally up to him. I will tell you he will be a great person at life.

But back to baseball he has all the tools to be big time! 6’3 200 pounds, throws in the mid to up 80’s good breaking pitch, and oh yea he is a southpaw! Many of pros make big money because they are southpaws, no matter there record. He will go for the brass ring, no doubt about that……… But in the spirit of things if he throws against the Canes I hope we punch his lights out.

I'm not questioning his character. You obviously are looking through Rose colored glasses. The guys in C-USA will be able to swing it a whole lot better than the boys at the TBCA did or the Tullahoma guys that absolutely torched him.

No just the glasses I wear everyday...... Tullahoma Torched everybody! My point which you tottaly missed...... He has good size.... throws lefty he will get a shot.... MTSU thinks so....... As for everything else in life we will see...... It is totally up to Kevin. By the way never said you questioned his character. I am not a Ooltewah guy.

Canes, take it on the chin this past weekend! Drop games to Owls 8-2, Tullahoma 15-2 (they are good really good), Bradley 8-4, and The home schoolers from Atlanta (IMO are a bunch of brats, I am speaking of the parents) Kids were good guys!

 

But, there is always a but , we played a few different lineups and did not throw our 1,2,3, pitchers..... Tullahoma still would have beat us.
