Head Coach Jack Leggett on Freeman: "Mike ended up having a really good fall, especially at the end of the fall season. He transferred into our program and it took him awhile to make adjustments. But once he made the adjustments and understood how we wanted him to play and practice, he really came on strong. He showed us some really exciting things to look forward to as far as offensive and defensive play. He turns the double play very well and should see a lot of time at second base."
Sophomore transfer with experience playing in an outstanding conference (SEC).
