Last fall he continued to play better and better and after a phenomenal Jupiter in which they won the national championship he had 4-5 reaching out to him. His college coach stated unless your a 1st round pick you don't need one and basically said don't get one. For the longest time we did not. We ended up meeting in person with one advisor from ACES baseball. 4 months went by and finally this week we proceeded to secure their services. As a 2018-2019 player you don't need one right now. We are approximately 1 month before the draft and we just got ours.
So what did you feel the advantage was to not getting an advisor/agent until the time you did. Did you feel it was just a hassle, that they did not have anything to offer until the draft? I really don't why the college coach would say you do not need one unless your a 1st round pick.
