2023 MLB Draft

[facelessjonmoon]

How about for every first and second round pick the university they came from loses one scholarship slot if that player was claimed as a walkOn or partial scholarship.

Pretty much every college baseball player that is on scholarship only gets a partial scholarship . There are only 11.7 schollys to split among entire team each year.

Seriously ?

[R1Letterman]

So…every player.

It wouldn’t take very long to count all of the college baseball players in the country who are on full scholarship.

Great. Then also show me the cancelled checks at the registrars office

99 in 100 with a jersey have no chance . . .

You and I know that, but nobody is calling our names any time soon.

I am just repeating what I heard Robe say many a times both generally and to his players . . .

I don't understand the reasoning or purpose behind this. Why penalize a school for having an outstanding player? Pretty much the great majority of college baseball players are on partial scholarship as they have only 11.7 scholarships to give out amongst the entire team.

Because they were finagaling the system and thus getting an extra scholarship. And/or saying they are not on scholarship yet they don't really pay tuition. Scholarship #s transcend budget and are meant for competitive reasons as well. You are allowed by ncaa X # of players that are scholarship quality.

[R1Letterman]

Compare it to football for a moment. Imagine a team has 10 players with over a million NIL. Just have the NIL payee pay the tuition as well (or deduct it from the nil) and then call those arguably best ten players on the team Waltons. Now you face a team that has 95 players scholarship worthy, seem fair?

It is none of your business which players get a scholarship and which don't.
