Baseball or Football?? Nova's Szczur will have to choose

Post by jstclmet »

It is a scenario that many two-sport athletes face: They must give up a sport they love to focus on the other one.

This one, however, comes with a $500,000 bonus.

Cutting and pasting my response from GoHens...

That's a very good article. So it sounds like he's been tearing it up in rookie league baseball, with two promotions already, yet this passage, to me anyway, makes it sound like he'll be returning for a full season of football at Villanova:
"Once you make it, you make it, man," he said of the NFL. "You get a salary for your first year. While in baseball, you might never make it [to the major leagues]. That's what I think about, where I would be better off financially."

Yeah, it looks like he doesn't have to choose until after the college football season will be over. He should be back on the football field, see what his draft status is like after the season and then choose. Either way, its a pretty good problem to have.
