A former LSU baseball infielder announced his next school via a post on his social media account Thursday. David Hogg will play his sophomore season at Kansas.
The former top-100 prospect spent one season in Baton Rouge. He played in 12 games and recorded a walk, run, and RBI in his two at-bats. Hogg’s last appearance came on April 22 against Northwestern State.
Hogg ranked No. 79 overall and No. 21 at shortstop in the 2024 class according to Perfect Game. The Mansfield, TX native came to LSU off a senior year where he batted .411 with a .534 on-base percentage.
Hogg couldn’t establish any sort of role on the 2025 team and likely would’ve had a tough time doing so next season. Head coach Jay Johnson brought in two experienced infielders from the transfer portal who also hit well at the collegiate level.

The Jayhawks went 43-17 overall with an NCAA Tournament berth. Infielder Brady Ballinger earned All-Big 12 first-team honors and may be off to the MLB Draft depending on his final prospect ranking.
