Although financial terms weren't disclosed, John Hinson's dad said the deal was:
“A lot better deal than 13th-round.”
Hinson:
“Whenever I talked to the Astros and we met in Greenville, it actually ended up being not that hard of a decision to make. I love Clemson. I loved playing there. I love that program. What it means to me is something great. Whenever I looked at it, coming down and playing for the Astros was my best option. It was pretty clear. I'm just excited to be able to be able to pursue my dreams.”
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
