FAYETTEVILLE — Shortly after the Razorbacks lost Game 3 of the College World Series finals in Omaha, Neb., Jared Gates said his playing days were likely behind him.
“I think so,” he told the Omaha World-Herald. “I have no regrets. To finish with this group of guys is a dream come true.”
In the profile, Gates' mother, Tammy, said, "This is it. This is his last game. I think he's ready to be done. He’d like to coach collegiately. That’s what he’s wanted to do.”
As it turns out, Gates' baseball career isn't over.
