Kyle Long has a bright future in football. The soon-to-be high school senior has scholarship offers from all over the football world including Florida State, USC, Virginia, Ohio State, Florida and Notre Dame. His older brother's already a star at the University of Virginia. Life is good, right?Not so much. He also happens to excel at baseball.
I have a ton of offers in football, but there's been some talk of being drafted in the first round out of high school next year. I'm deciding about which sport will provide me the best future.Iiiinteresting. For what it's worth the latest I've heard is that he's headed to Florida State to play baseball. First round money and/or sweet nothings whispered in your ear by Jim Tressel, Urban Meyer and Pete Carroll can change things, however.
And what's this about providing the best future? Your old man's a former NFL'er, he's still collecting paychecks doing NFL pregame studio work and electronics commercials, you live in a nice area in Virginia and older bro Chris is a year away from NFL millions. You're set, we skeptical media folk and pundits need more believable justification than that.

Stick to football Ryan...just ask Drew Henson how that worked out for him...Steinbrennner lured him away from Michigan with $1M signing bonus and we (virtually) never heard from him again...Drew thought careers were longer in baseball.

It's also worth mentioning that UVA is currently ranked #3 in the country in baseball.
