I'm confused. Why wasn't he drafted so highly? You never mentioned that.

Is this sarcastic? Honest question.

elgie, best of luck at KU. 12th round out of HS is excellent, bright future.
feldman was twice the player burgard was, heck i could name 10 players in ND that are twice the player burgard is and their not getting drafted. laber is a lefty with some decent stuff, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he went in the 48th round. just dont think he will though.
The thing with Elgie is, if he doesn't sign and goes to KU, he has to wait til after his junior to be drafted again. I texted Carr a little bit ago and he said last year a guy from the U of M was drafted around there and received 75,000 and a year of school. I'm not sure if he will take it or not. That doesn't mean that is what he will foresure get, that is just a rough estimate.
he only has to wait until the end of his sophomore year peter gammons. juco 1 year wait, 4 year school 2 year wait. 75,000? not even close dude, get a clue. hes going to KU

or he could attempt to "obtain a dream" and end up being a flop. take the couple years of college ball to get better (and get an education, aka something to fall back on if it all doesnt work out) then go for the dream.

i think he should take it. there;s also a chance he could not pan out in college and not end up anywhere after that. you can always go back to college to get an education, even if it isn't free
