Scholarships for dual sport athletes (football/any other sport) count against the football numbers.

I didn't say you couldn't play both. I would bet that Chad Jones signed a football scholarship and not a baseball scholarship.

how did he play in a travel/showcase game during the prep season - doesn't that make one ineligible?

per nola dot com

On April 2, Beck recorded a no-hitter, while playing with a 17U travel baseball team, with a total of 13 strikeouts. The right-handed pitcher is the No. 7 pitching prospect for the 2016 class, according to PerfectGame.org.

Chad had a football full ride.
NCAA rules for football is that multi-sport stars that play football must have football ride and the same for Basketball. If a player plays football and basketball, then football trumps.

He and his entourage were going on and on about LSU baseball. Kid was wearing a nice LSU jacket, but had a flat bill pelicans hat. Put down a whole pizza and salad. Didn't realize who he was until someone said his name and I googled his bro.

You don't have to worry about Matt. Kid is an honor student and bleeds purple and gold. He's gonna stick by his commitment and will not be lured by some flash in the pan MLB bonus.

I haven't seen him pitch, but he can spin the football. He is very mobile and elusive for a guy his size and makes some crazy accurate throws across his body.
