Blue Jackets' Milano pulls out of Boston College commitment; will play for OHL's Plymouth Whalers

Columbus Blue Jackets prospect Sonny Milano changed his mind on that whole college thing. 

Milano, the wildly-skilled 16th-overall pick in June's draft, has pulled out of his commitment to Boston College with the intention of signing a pro deal. 

He will play for the Ontario Hockey League's Plymouth Whalers next season, where his work-load (on the ice - not in the classroom) will be far greater than in Division I and he will be afforded the opportunity to attend Jackets' camp. 

Columbus will now work toward signing Milano to an entry-level contract.
