Vandy commit?

Bound for Vandy.

Probably a tough sign without the financial restraints.

I think they might actually sign him if the reported Allan bonus is closer to $3million. They might have the cash to do it.

Kinda hope he doesn't sign. MLB writeup says he'd be the first player from his HS to go to a division I school. Also has said it would be "a dream" to play for Vandy. Think he passes.

McIntosh plays summer ball with the son of one of my old classmates. He told him that he was going to Vandy. My classmate told me he has blazing speed but his bat is not college level yet.

Sounds like he's realistic in his expectations and dreams, which is a good thing rather than foregoing one certain dream for a $100K bonus + the chance to chase a very unlikely one.

They usually have in their contract School stipulations if they fail
