Donny Everett Won't Sign With Brewers, Will Attend (and Pitch For) Vanderbilt Instead

Potential first-round draft pick Donny Everett told MLB teams not to select him since he was set on attending Vanderbilt, but the Brewers took a flyer on the young gun anyway. On Wednesday, Everett reiterated his intentions to come to Nashville.

Vanderbilt lost all three of their postseason starting pitchers after finishing as national runners-up in 2015. Now, they'll have the opportunity to slot a 99-mph hurler into Carson Fulmer, Philip Pfeifer, or Walker Buehler's spot in the rotation.

Tim Corbin's 2015 recruiting class got a major boost when right-handed pitcher Donny Everett decided to spurn a professional contract with the Milwaukee Brewers in order to attend Vanderbilt instead.
