Now the question is will Murray stick with his orginal plan to play baseball (I believe he's an Oakland A's draft-pick), or will bigger football dollars sway him.

Baseball pays much better, for a longer period of time and is guaranteed.

FYI...

Why Kyler Murray is picking baseball over football, and what to expect from the Heisman winner on the diamond

PS - Everyone's least favorite baseball agent, Mr. Boras, is of course saying he will play baseball.

More longevity, more money, guaranteed, far fewer long-term health impacts, and he’s still 5’9 at most so the NFL would be tough.

Agreed. It was eye opening watching him on CBS pregame yesterday. Simms and others just towered over him. He might not even be as tall as Doug Flutie.

We may have the taller Kyler Murray. Might not be as good throwing a football or hitting a baseball as the original, but taller still.

Anyway, I believe UConn's success is greatly helped by having a dual threat at QB and this guy kinda bears a resemblance to Kyler Murray (only he's much taller)
