Wednesday News and Notes: Gamecocks in MLB Draft and More
Hi, everyone. Highlighting today's news are the Gamecocks selected in the MLB draft. Here are some relevant headlines:
Gamecock Junior RHP Sam Dyson Selected By Toronto Blue Jays In 4th Round Of 2010 MLB Draft - SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS.
Whit Merrifield Selected By Kansas City Royals In Ninth Round Of 2010 MLB Draft - SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS.
Blake Cooper Selected In 12th Round Of MLB Draft By Arizona Diamondbacks - SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS.
Dyson, Merrifield, Cooper drafted | GoGamecocks.

Steven Neff and Bobby Haney have also been drafted in the low rounds. There were also, as the last article indicates, several signees drafted, so we'll have to sweat it out and wait to see which ones choose to play college ball and which ones don't. Dyson is almost certainly gone, but all other players with eligibility remaining could very well stay. Par for the course, but always a big issue. Keep your fingers crossed.
Here's the rest of the news:

The AJC's version of Ron Morris picks the Gamecocks to finish second in the SEC East by virtue of a tiebreaker over the Dawgs. Hint: this is more or less where I'm going to come down, including on the particular games we'll lose.

I could laugh at the ridiculous comments made by UGA and Tech fans in the AJC article all day.
Also, congrats on the Top 50 ranking! Know what the best part of it is? No Clemson blogs ranked!

I've always maintained that UGA has some of the most idiotic fans in the country.
They’re a lot like ’Bama—the ones that went to the university are usually pretty cool, but they also have legions of fans from Deliverance country that come out of the woodwork for games and AJC comments sections.
