Because no one thought he would be that good. The same reason he wasn't in any other uniform better than South Alabama. South Alabama was his best offer.

He wanted to play every day, and most teams wanted him to pitch out of the pen.

USA gave him his wish.

Because LSU was among a lot of schools that were unable to project him as a major college player, a great kid that took coaching and worked hard to make himself in a first round draft choice.
South Alabama was the only school to see that potential and was rewarded with him signing and leading them to a pair of NCAA regionals.

A better question is how Denham Springs couldn't get past the 2nd round of the playoffs with him, a 5th round pitcher, and multiple players that played college ball.

Everyone missed on this guy, wasnt just us. It happens. Look at Kahlil Mack he went to buffalo, some people just fall through the cracks in all sports.
