Reply to "2004 Draft"

I can't speak for Preston, but I can tell you Randall's situation. Randall signed a NLI with every intent of going to Baylor unless he was given life changing money. That is what we told Coach Smith and we had no reason to change that position. All the scouts that I spoke with were given a round or bonus money it would take to get him to sign, obviously knowone felt he was at that level. We did receive two calls during the draft to see if our position had changed and if we would sign for a certain amount, we declined. We aren't interested in a DNF, playing in Baylor is going to be a great atmosphere and close to home. Don't get me wrong we would have loved to hear Randall's name called out, but we will wait 3 years and see what happens.

Preston is a great talent, along with several other area players that I haven't heard called, I am sure some of their stories are similar to ours.

Congradulations to all area guys that did get drafted!!!
