Quick DFE question


I was reviewing BA's information on the draft, and noticed that Clemson 1b Michael Johnson was considered to be under the control of the Padres, despite being in a D-1 program (Clemson) and not a JuCo. Does anyone know how this loophole existed? Or am I missing something here?

 

Thanks, Greg.

 

From BA:

"If the timing is right, San Diego hoped to sign as many as eight of last year?s picks, including its second-round selection, Clemson first baseman Michael Johnson."

I believe BA tackled this in one of their AskBA segments, and I'm sure it's better explained in some FAQ somewhere (I didn't bother to check, I'll probably look around a little bit tomorrow for the proper wording if someone doesn't beat me to it), but it has to do with the fact that he was a college senior last year. He returned to school to play during his final year of eligibility and is now a 5th year senior.
