Kyler Murray to ink deal with the Swingin' A's, and forego his senior football season, at BlowU.. Any confirmation on this?
Yep http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/...k-kyler-murray-reaches-deal-oakland-athletics https://www.hornfans.com/threads/kyler-murray-picked-9-in-mlb-draft.106585/page-3#post-1579689
Would 2019 be his senior year? I saw something yesterday about this and the headline was misleading, suggesting that he would skip this year when actually he was going to play football in 2018 and skip 2019 for MLB.
Ugh! I thought I was on to something.. Turns out, he will play this fall: https://fansided.com/2018/06/13/kyler-murray-signing-with-oakland-a-senior-year-oklahoma/
BIG PARTYS AT THE MURRAY HOUSE THIS WEEKEND!!! In summary, he plays one more season (2018) for the land thieves, forgoes Sr. year (2019) and goes to the A's prolly for Spring Ball in Feb. 2019. Suppose this means he will also forgo his college education / degree but he has $4.6 MM in his pocket & big future earnings to make up for that. Wonder if he will have all kinds of people ask him to give or let them borrow $$$ as he strolls the campus and Norman?
Unless he is the second coming of Doug Flutie, I really look forward to facing Kyler. I think he is vastly overrated.
