Ole Miss now has seven commits via the portal.
Mike Bianco and Co., are looking to revamp a roster which has been gutted by the transfer portal. Ole Miss is almost certainly going to lose top signee Slade Caldwell to the MLB Draft and Cade Townsend is “50/50”, per a few scouts. The Rebels also hope to hold on to Mason Nichols, Riley Maddox, Hunter Elliot and Connor Spencer.
Troy Sutherland, Perfect Game’s national Scouting Coordinator for the Mid-South, saw Robertson live this spring at the PCB Classic.
“Excellent JUCO pick up. JP Robertson can pitch,” Sutherland said. “He’s just a pitcher. He can PITCH. He performed well and is No. 159 on our board.”
