I might be wrong, but I thought someone a few years ago played one summer with the Mallards. If he is good enough to play D1 baseball, the Mallards would definitely take him on, but it might keep him out out of summer conditioning.

Was it Stocco?
I don't know how playing for the Madison Mallards would compare to playing baseball at Auburn, who could potentially advance to College World Series'.
College baseball of course fits into a football player's schedule seamlessly. College Football season from September til early January -> Baseball Practice from January to early March (or whatever) -> Baseball season from March til June -> Football preparation all summer.
Hypothetically if he submitted his name to the MLB draft, is there any way he could fit pro baseball AND college football into his schedule. I know it's not an NCAA violation to be a professional in a
different sport than you're competing in with your college. Does anybody know if either Drew Henson or Jeff Samardzija played pro baseball while they were in college?
