Yea, a full ride is very rare. LSU was lucky to Raph Rhymes say he would pay the full way, not to waste any scholarship on him. I could be wrong, but I think a quarter scholarship is normal.
I would love to see the number 18-20, but not sure hos feasible that is for most schools.


Probably, the better guys might get half to 3/4.

I would imagine MLB has a lot to do with this as they can get guys right out HS to put in their farm system vs waiting 3-4 years, full schollys would help colleges get guys to campus.

Of course MLB would have their interests first, the NFL/NBA isn't comparable because they do not have a minor league system like MLB (the NBA-DL doesn't really count).

I do like the baseball system, as far as either go pro, or go to college, and stay 3 years(at least).
And I agree, full scholorships would help some players go to college(which would prolly be better for the country too) instead of MLB. 20 Would not allow you to give everyone a full ride, but would help. Considering how many athletic departments still lose money, that is still pushing it, without more money being spent on college baseball by outside sources.
