“We really haven’t started anything yet,” Tepesch said. “I talked with the scout who drafted me last week. He was just giving me an idea of what they’re thinking and asked me what I’m doing. I just told him I’m working out here in Columbia.”

It'd be tough to go back to school after being drafted. But, if he can improve his draft position by quite a bit, it could mean a serious difference in cash. He'll have until about mid-August to make the decision.
