(6/9) Taylor Opts For Baseball
Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes
Sooners '07 signee Londell Taylor opts to play baseball: Londell Taylor had his mind made up even before the phone rang Friday. When it did and the Detroit Tigers were on the other end, the Vian High School standout athlete said yes in deciding to forego his Oklahoma Sooners football scholarship and pursue a major league baseball career. "I knew if I was going to get drafted, I was going to play baseball," Taylor said. "I had a lot of people in my town that wanted me to go to OU. But it's my decision and I like baseball more than football." The Tigers chose Taylor in the 13th round as the 421st overall pick. (Muskogee Phoenix)
