Another interesting story in the podcast was about Clayton Kershaw. Baylor offers two guys scholarships and the first one to accept was the other guy - not Kershaw. So the other guy gets the scholarship. I don't believe the coach even mentioned the name of the other guy but I am assuming none of us ever heard of him. It kind of shows how fickle things can be sometimes with other things in the recruiting mix we might not be aware of.
Regarding Kershaw, I vividly remember hsbbweb members from Texas raving about a high school kid named Clayton Kershaw who of course, none of us knew anything about. Some of them were comparing him to Roger Clemons and Nolan Rayan and I was thinking at the time - really - he is still in high school? Well... one hall of fame career later, those people obviously knew what they were talking about....
