NCAA = head coach

i think it stems from mlb having player/coaches in the past, so one player was deemed "manager" but im not positive

eta: i know thats why coaches in baseball wear the full uniform, anyway

Because at the college level you are still refining and coaching

At the MLB level you are doing more managing and letting your pitching coach or hitting coach do the coaching
