Tartans Excited and Nervous As Draft Approaches

Having went conservative in their scouting expenditures this season the Tartans say they are both excited and nervous as draft approaches. Owner Randy Benoit admitted, "our decision to spend $15 million on collegiate scouting and only $12 mil on high school scouting has us in a tight situation as the draft approaches."

"Not to tip our hand, but there is one collegiate prospect were are really interested in, and would fit well within the framework of our organization." ..."Our other top options are dominated by high school talents. It is challenging when more reliable projections for collegiate players are well below many of the high school talents. We feel that we have to take a risk, because playing it safe and drafting these well scouted guys does not give any hope to improving our talent level. So we are forced to take some risk and draft players further from the big leagues in hopes of landing potential ML talent."

"Beyond that, we have nothing further to say. To Tartans Nation, we advise to keep your fingers crossed, so we get the guy we are targeting, otherwise it could be risky."
