4. Jameis Winston, QB, Hueytown High School
Simply put, he’ll be one of the top five quarterback recruits in the country. And among the dual-threat signal-callers, the 6'3", big-armed and fleet-footed Golden Gopher might be the cream of the 2012 crop.
The problem is, Winston translates his strong arm to the baseball diamond. His signing a Major League contract after this summer’s First-Year Player Draft is a possibility, but that won’t dissuade football powers everywhere from fervently pursuing.
My prediction: If he doesn’t ink a pro baseball deal, he’ll sign with Tide football—and might play both sports in college.[

I agree that Jameis is a very talented athlete in both sports, but since he will not graduate from high school until 2012 he will not be eligible for the baseball draft until then.
