I talked to an NCAA official, and their main reason for doing this is to "protect the integrity of the game" with a better balance of offense/defense.

The more authenticity you can give college baseball as a natural stepping stone to the MLB, the better.

The minor league system will always be able to do end-runs around college baseball for a significant % of new prospects, but anything you can possibly do to keep that number as low as possible benefits the college game.

Keep getting as many players like Clemens & Bonds & McGwire & Ventura & Belle & Clark & Palmeiro as possible.
