That's actually not entirely accurate.
Bo was drafted by the Bucs in 86, but opted to play baseball instead. Him not signing with Tampa was purely because of his desire to play baseball.
The reason why he was selected (7th round) late in 87 was because no one knew if he was going to stay in baseball or not.
So while I can see your point about this, it's a totally different scenario.
But I guess you did answer my question...if he doesn't sign, then he goes into next years draft?
