Parker plays hardball at Clemson amid dual sport doubt
Clemson quarterback and baseball prospect Kyle Parker returned to campus after choosing to pursue football this fall despite being a first round MLB draft pick. He said no chance he would switch if Rockies offered a baseball only deal as talks loom toward an August 16 deadline. Parker described turning down a near 2.4 million bonus as nerve racking but right. Clemson coach Jack Leggett hopes Parker stays with baseball long enough to impact the Tigers.
