June 8, 201015 yr Sounds like a real "grinder" MLB scouting report Summary: Wilson is the type of gritty college middle infielder who'll get plaudits for being a real "ballplayer." He knows how to play the game the right way and, despite some deficiencies in his game, always finds a way to get the job done. The type who plays above his tools, he wasn't performing with the bat the way he had previously in his Alabama career. That might hurt him come Draft time some, though there are always teams interested in advanced infielders who have the kind of attitude Wilson has.

June 8, 201015 yr This is a kid who was on a reality show on MTV and actually came out better for it. His makeup is outstanding. That coupled with him being the brother of an Alabama QB and himself the QB of an intense High School football program with a winning tradition, it's amazing that this kid came out as good as he did.

June 8, 201015 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 07:25 PM) White Sox select Ross "Two-A-Days" Wilson! Love it! Sweet, probably the 2nd best QB in Chicago now! Can he bring those hot cheerleaders from Hoover High School with him?

June 8, 201015 yr Wilson could be a hard sign, as one thing I can tell you from watching Two-a-Days is that his family doesn't need the money. He'll be on tv this weekend in the super regionals for those that want to see him. BTW, I like the J. Spence pick someone else mentioned.

DOes he still have that smokin hot girlfriend?
June 8, 201015 yr I still remember the final scene of the first year of the show when he went to take batting practice after not swinging during the entire football season and he was just roping the ball.
June 8, 201015 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 03:36 PM) DOes he still have that smokin hot girlfriend? According to wikipedia, he does.
June 8, 201015 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:39 PM) According to wikipedia, he does. The fat linemen from season 2 got dumped by his amazingly beautiful girlfriend as soon as she went off to college.
June 8, 201015 yr I wonder if one of my buddies from school will get drafted. Steve Styck and Eric Meyerchick. Both RHP. Styck throws about 88-89 MPH, but submarine style. Meyerchick throws about 91-92, and can touch 94. Edited June 8, 201015 yr by JoeCoolMan24

June 8, 201015 yr Arizona just selected Freeman. Older prospect now though. A's got Kirkland. Sox got James McDonald SS High schooler. Edited June 8, 201015 yr by SoxAce

June 8, 201015 yr High school SS James Mcdonald to the White Sox. They're certainly filling that middle infield void in the system.
June 8, 201015 yr So when do we get Wilson and Ozney? I'm amazed Wilson is still available for this long, thought some team would take a flyer. Oney is a douche.
