Any idea when his first start would be (sorry if this was addressed in another post)?

I figured it was an error but just wanted to make sure. I was at the NCAA Tournament in Nashville and one of my friends spoke with White's dad and told him White was likely to return unless he was a really high pick and White was quoted as saying the same thing in an article last week. White had his moments this past year, but I'd love to see what he can do as a full time player. As to Reid, we were confused because we didn't think he got drafted at all until a poster pointed out that Michael Reid was actually Chase Reid. I'm less concerned about losing pitchers to the draft now because of the results of our pitching coach Derek Johnson (Sowers in 04, Price and Weathers in 07). You're also spot on about VU not losing players to the draft. We've lost our fair share of elite prospects (Kyle Waldrop would have been starting with David Price...scary) but our recent success has scared scouts away from even drafting the likes of Curtis Casali and Aaron Westlake.

I've got a question about 2 of your draft picks: Jonathan White and Chase Reid. My question for you all is whether these 2 have signed contracts yet. ESPN.com reported that they both did, but I can't find anywhere else to support that. Can anyone give me a definitive answer? I'm a Vandy grad but am attending law school at Marquette, so I've become somewhat of a Brewers fan over the past year. However, I'd love to see White back on campus and for Reid to make it to Vandy, so that's why I'm here. Thanks for any answers.
