Good question.

And I'll say this- in this era where we are talking about inequality there is probably no group where the scholarships are more unequal to the other college sports than baseball.

The NCAA does stuff like this where "need based" is OK- just bite the bullet and add more scholarships like there needs to be. And IMO there needs to be 30 full scholarships for baseball.

And if the small schools who don't want to spend the money- which is the real issue on this and why the rules are what they are- then either split them out into another division like football has done at the D-I level or tell them to suck it up and if they can only give out five scholarships that's fine because they probably don't care enough about baseball for it to be viable anyway.
