Some guys just have it all.
Months after signing to play football for Georgia, Terry Goodwin has received a tryout offer from the Braves.

Goodwin is a five-star receiver from Callaway (Ga.) High School who also plays third base on his school’s baseball team.
He will work out for the Braves along with other high school prospects during a May 28 pre-draft camp.
“He’s extremely athletic, as far as baseball goes,” Callaway baseball coach Dusty Hubbard told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “He is a plus defender. He’s such an instinctual infielder and has a great arm.”
At the plate, Goodwin is hitting .305 and has stolen 15 bases this season.
If Goodwin were to be drafted and choose baseball, it wouldn't be the first time the Bulldogs lost a star gridiron recruit to America's pastime. George Lombard, a former five-star running back, picked baseball over football, playing for four MLB teams from 1998 to 2006.
Hubbard doesn’t see that happening in this case.
“If it comes to fruition, they will have a plan for it,” Hubbard said of the possibility of Goodwin being drafted and turning pro. “I think, right now, that there’s a very, very good possibility that he’ll be at Georgia on June 1 and he’ll be there all summer long for this summer, no matter what. He’ll be there for his first football season.”
