Baseball is the better choice if he is equally good

Is it though? Development process in MLB is long... Similar caliber (relative to his recruiting ranking... who knows yet how accurate it will be) QBs of Fields' build/skillset have been able to find success in the NFL more quickly.
Not outright disagreeing, legitimately curious why you'd think so.

Not sure what position he plays, but generally speaking, baseball can be more lucrative and his shelf life would be much longer.
That isn’t always the case though.

Not sure about the shelf life. Successful quarterbacks often play into their late 30's or 40's

His scouting profiles on various baseball services do not indicate that he would be an early round draft pick. I think he will end up early enrolling at Georgia. Seems like he just likes to keep people on the edge of his seat. Haha

No different then Winston. If he can get drafted and receive a nice signing bonus play baseball while being a redshirt. The money for baseball does not effect his football eligibility.

You should either learn to read, or learn how to respond to the correct person. My post suggested Fields would stick with football

Disagree, the flame out rate for top prospects in baseball extremely high. You go in a system and at a mininmum you are looking at 4/5 years in the minors unless you are an absolute monster. Baseball is a fickle beast. As a person who played and coached baseball - With pitchers throwing 100mpg these days....it's just a hard damn sport to be great at. A 5star QB in college has a good chance at the NFL in 3 years and contrary to popular belief....the flame out rate for QBs isn't as high as other positions outside of concussion cases.

You guys are really worried about Fields going to Georgia.
Could be a good one, we'll find out in 3 years.

Fake news. Terry Godwin was highly ranked/drafted and you see how he spends his time...

Fromm doesn't have the skill set or need to leave early. He's gonna be another Greene/Murray 4 year started NFL backup.
Posted on 1/4/18 at 7:53 pm to HTDawg
Not sure how that's being triggered. It's most likely true and it's a good thing for UGA. He's going to win a lot of games there. He's a great college QB to drive a loaded ship. A lot like A.J. McCarron at bama.

ESPN currently has him as the number 1 player. I mean I get that your a serial hater and often envious of our recruiting but suggesting Fromm doesn't have NFL talent is asinine.

Draft site has Fromm as the 1 QB for 2021 Draft class

So they expect him to stay four years, just like I said

They rank players by there class. They don't rate them as juniors. ESPN has people already projecting him the number 1 QB as a Junior and he is drawing rave reviews for his freshman season. He's also significantly taller than Aaron Murray and played better than Murray did his freshman season.
You're thoughts on him are shite but I am sure you already know that after I backed it up with some reports that shows your poor judgment of his potential draft stock.
