Will Tennessee baseball's top commitment Brady House make it to Knoxville after MLB Draft?
Brady House has been committed to Tennessee baseball since June 2018. The 6-foot-4, 210 pound shortstop has been widely rated as one of the top high school players in the country. ESPN's Kiley McDaniel's most recent MLB mock draft projects the Winder, Georgia, native at third overall to the Detroit Tigers. Though House said in early April he hadn't made his mind up about whether he'll be heading to Knoxville or signing a pro contract, he will have a decision this summer. Ill be thinking about (whether to go pro or play in college) all summer, House told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Its going to take a lot of thought, prayer and talks with my parents. Right now, Im not leaning one way or another. Im just focused on finishing the season, and whatever comes ahead, Ill attack it head on.  According to MLB.com, the assigned value for the third overall pick is $7,221,200. Though House has held strong on his commitment to the Volunteers for over three years, it would be quite a difficult situation for him to turn that down in favor of Tennessee. If he was to hold on his commitment to the Vols, House said he already spoke with the coaching staff about pitching, too. The Winder-Barrow High closer touched the upper-90s this season, saying he'd be willing to help on both fronts for Tennessee. The MLB Draft is July 11-13.
