Have any high school atheletes decided to play thier respective sports in college next year?

Baldwin from TV will probably play basketball. Whitney Compton from Haysi will probably play basketball somewhere. Ryan Jones from Haysi will probably play baseball somewhere. Marcum from Grundy will probably play football unless he goes to Tech.

Ryan Jones baseball.....at what position

**CoeburnCane** · January 26th, 2006, 03:03 PM

He'll probably be a pitcher somewhere.

**Ghetto_Heisman** · January 26th, 2006, 03:05 PM

That's what I was thinking but I wasn't sure...maybe as a closer or setup

**Herbie_Husker** · January 26th, 2006, 03:05 PM

I'm not really sure where they are thinking about going.
Jones will probably play 1st or 3rd base.

**Herbie_Husker** · January 26th, 2006, 03:06 PM

He is a very good pitcher but I don't see him pitching on the next level.

**Ghetto_Heisman** · January 26th, 2006, 03:07 PM

That's what I was thinking to honestly...he can throw a pretty good fastball but his other pitches are lacking a bit

Herbie...that's all I've heard a lot of colleges talk to him about. There's been some that have wanted him to both play a position and be on the pitching staff, but most college teams don't do that anymore.
