The MLB draft starts on Monday, and one of the nation’s top prospects is Memphis University School senior Maurice Hampton, who is projected as a first-round pick.
At 6 feet, 205 pounds, Hampton is an outfielder with the size and speed of an SEC defensive back. The LSU signee, who primarily plays cornerback, is the top football prospect in the state, according to the 247Sports Composite.
He is also the first player in Tennessee to win Mr. Football and Mr. Baseball in the same season.
