Legit question, did Skip ever get this kind of coverage?
When skip was coaching, the draft coverage amounted to a conference call and a list in the newspaper.

No.
1. There was no MLB network in the 90’s. Hell, many people don’t get it now
2. I’m pretty sure the MLB draft wasn’t televised in the 90’s. Even if it was, Skip was often at the CWS
3. College baseball wasn’t nationally relevant in the 90’s. It is still not on the whole today, but much more than it was in the 90’s.
In short, Skip never got this kind of coverage because no one (outside of LA) really cared enough to give it to him.
