Baseball: Ryan Thornton - UNLV/Tampa Bay Rays - a podcast by Tye Davis

A former three sport high school star who had full-ride scholarship offers from both division one basketball and football universities, Ryan Thornton, sits down and talks details around the enormous decision he made to surpass full ride offers for both football and basketball.  Taking a big leap of faith in his raw baseball talent, he chose to pursue a career in baseball and quickly made a name for himself getting drafted in the 17th round by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.  He talks through best practices in choosing an agent and what MLB teams are really proposing when they make an offer.
