Mainieri running out of patience with MLB and his signees | shreveporttimes.com | The Times Coach gives the recruits a one week deadline...
I heard where Ware wants to play baseball too, what is his chance to make the LSU baseball team? :geaux:
If he wants to play and I think he will, Coach PM would have a easy decision to let him be apart of the team since he would not count against the baseball scholarship limits. He could only be on a football scholarship if you play 2 sports.
Im glad that Coach is giving his own deadline.... Sure the money is decent. But u either wanna play college ball or not.
Coach is giving the AGENTS a one week deadline. There's a lot of timing and delay involved in negotiations. sometimes it's even as simple as how soon you return someones calls. Agents often want to glean information and not divulge any, and waiting is part of the game. Negotiations are back and forth like a tennis match but there's no rule saying the ball has to be returned immediately....hence the term "The ball's in their court."...there's no umpire walking to the mound to break up a tete-a-tete by saying "play ball". Also agents and lawyers don't like an uninvolved party trying to influence negotiations from outside their arena. They probably could care less what coach Mainieri thinks. After all, they have the best interest of their clients at heart (which happens to coincide with their own self interests). It is frustrating to all us spectators...like a crowd booing a basketball team when they slow down the game on purpose. Mainieri will probably have to wait.
