According to a report, NC State star freshman catcher Cannon Peebles has entered the transfer portal after a breakout season.

Peebles led the Wolfpack with a .352 batting average, .697 slugging percentage and a .456 on-base percentage.  He tied for first on the roster with 50 RBI and ranked second on the team with 12 home runs in just 142 at-bats.

Peebles primarily served as a designated hitter with the Wolfpack already having one of the top catchers in baseball, Jacob Cozart.  Cozart has another year of eligibility remaining.

Welp. I know there is a lot of work that could still be done for State in the portal, but this one is huge.
Y'all means ALL.

Cannon is a great player who wants to play everyday. Do you sit Cozart? This is very understandable. Nothing pathetic about it! It is just the way college sports are now. I hate it too, but no need to criticise anyone! Go Pack!
Jesus, Family, Wolfpack!

Players want to play...we just have 2 good catchers...it's understandable that he would want to find a role on the field as well. Good luck young man!

Was really hoping he could play 3rd or OF some. This one really sucks man.

If he wants to get drafted highly he needs a solid body of work as a catcher

Teams aren't going to spend a higher pick on a guy who has limited college film behind the plate and has mostly played DH; bat-only prospects need to have god-tier stats to get picked highly

It's getting harder and harder to want to invest any resources into college sports. There is no loyalty at all!!

College sports don't suck but what is happening with the transfer portal and unchecked NIL/tampering does. We also benefit from the same rules that allow athletes to move freely. I don't like the system but still like the sports.
