In high school, as a sophomore, he won the state championship in the high jump, also competed in pole vault, sprints and discus. Got their basketball team to state final four. Played 8 man football in HS (hometown is pop. 1600), still got offers from every major football program in the country .
Drafting this high we needed more than a Wong/Edman type who can hit .300 but merely average power. You can get those with a lower pick. He's a line drive, gap to gap guy.

It's definitely the cost. You need cleats. A glove. A bat. Decent ones of each cost around $100--if not more. If you play football, yeah, you need a lot, but because it's a fairly lucrative high school sport as far as schools are concerned, there are decent scholarships for equipment once you get to school level football.
