This may be a stupid question, but could Winston come to LSU on a baseball scholly and be a dual sport athlete (baseball and football)?
If his baseball skills prove to be superior he could up his MLB value after one year with the Tigers BB team. If not he could then focus on football skills and make himself valuable to the NFL.
IDK, but it seems he may have more to gain by being a dual sport athlete for the Tigers for at least one year (where both the BB and FB programs compete and win championships on a "regular" basis as of late). At worse, he can end up in the NFL in 4 years as a high draft pick and at best he can end up in the MLB with a higher value contract in the spring of 2013 (assuming no injuries).

If you play football you must be on a football scholarship. Bear Bryant rule.
