How a ruling you might have missed could shake up college baseball, MLB draft forever

A ruling against the NCAA could have a sizable impact on the future of college baseball.

If upheld, a player who spends two years at a junior college could start his NCAA career as a freshman with four years of eligibility left.

The impact could be felt by everyone involved across every level, including college baseball, MLB draft and minor leagues.

There's currently a pretty high bar for teams to clear when offering a bonus to entice a player to sign out of high school.

We've started seeing some examples of players choosing college over pro ball with NIL offers playing a large role.

The combination of the recently contracted minor leagues, NIL /transfer portal and junior colleges as a training ground that don't use NCAA eligibility could lead to fewer players signing for lower- six -figure bonuses.
