The “bus” side of the minors isn’t like it was portrayed “Bull Durham”. Many level of minor league ball play six game series with an off day on Monday. They are taking one bus ride a week. And most are not in podunk towns either. The High A Northwest League has teams in Vancouver, Spokane, Eugene, and Everett Washington. That being said, the experience that LSU can provide is unlike what you will see in the low levels of minor league ball. But minor league ball has greatly improved the playing conditions for their players in the last 10 years or so.
I gaurantee that the life of a college star is way better than a MiLB prospect in this new NIL era. If they are ok with school duties the college is a better choice.

If you’re an elite high school prospect you’re not considering spending much more time below AAA than an out of college prospect. Additionally, I can’t imagine any of these guys worry about that. This kid will get top money and there isn’t a baseball program across the US who can or would be willing to match that money. The changes to the draft have improved college baseball and made the draft a much less speculative process. Pro teams don’t just waste picks like they used to… especially on Rd1 picks. It would be shocking if Griffin made it to campus.
