Braxton Lane, an Oregon Football and Baseball recruit from the class of '09 was drafted today in the 7th round of the MLB draft by the Texas Rangers. So what do you think he does?
You can see Rob Moseley's thoughts and background of the situation here, as well as a follow-up here.
This is the decision of Lane's life, which is an astounding cross to bear for a 17 year-old. He chooses between receiving education and being a college football and/or baseball star, or trying to break the minor league baseball ranks. Standing as a 7th round draft pick, he'll have much more to do and go through in baseball than he would if he had 2 or 4 years of seasoning in college - possibly resulting in kicking up to the 2nd or 3rd round.
So, what do you think Lane does? Of course we'd all like to believe he'll stay and be a duck, but what do you think he will do?
Bonus question: What do you think he SHOULD do? Make case without a green-tinted visor.
