My thoughts on College are this.....if you are good enough to play pro ball out of high school and pro ball is your #1 priority, then you should sign. If you are good enough to play pro ball out of high school and education is your #1 priority, then you should go to college.

That statement I'll agree with 99%. I do believe that a player who is good enough to get drafted in the 1st or 2nd round and gets round money should go pro and put money aside for college unless they have no desire to ever play professional baseball. You can get a college degree after taking a few years off although doing so does reduce the probability of finishing the degree.
