    On Rivals.com it says Jerald Watson (5'11, 205lbs running back out of Central Catholic) is a bonafide major league baseball prospect, will he play football and baseball at LSU?

    Saban doesn't allow guys to play baseball their freshman year, so if he wanted to play he would have to wait until his sophomore year atleast, unless Saban felt like he was an exception to the rule.

    Do you think if a player wanted to play Minor League BB and FB (ala Jamie Howard), that Coach Saban would allow that. I dont think he has run into that situation yet.
