I cannot imagine that there has ever been a NCAA sport in which one conference has so thoroughly dominated with the depth and variety of domination matching what the SEC has done over the past six seasons in baseball.

The specifics may be unique in this recent SEC run. This is particularly true in the number of teams to win over a short spell.
It's clearly the current top baseball conference. 

However, the best college baseball conference that ever existed was the Pac 10 South, the old Six Pac; particularly in its earlier years. 
It lasted from 1977 through 1998. 
Arizona, ASU, Cal, Stanford, SC, UCLA.
Amongst those teams they have 25 NCAA championships. 
The key thing about the league is that it had no bottom, every game was versus a tournament quality team and they played home and home weekend series against everyone. 
It was also small, so had few teams in the tournament every year. It never dominated the number of host sites.  

One thing to remember is that the SEC has 14 teams and gets around 10 into the tournament each year. That a lot of rolls of the dice in a sport that often comes down to a fair amount of randomness. In fact, that randomness itself is reflected in the number of different champs, which in general were not the best team in the SEC itself. 
[Similarly, in the days of the Six Pac several NCAA champs were not the best team in the Six Pac, including Stanford in 1988.]

I wish Bruno the best but going pro seems a mistake at this point.  His WHIP seems too high, too many walks, plus 13 WP and 9 HB.  He also appears to have issues with Umpires calls at times.  I am sure someone will take a flier on him, but he may be riding the busses in the minors longer than he wants.  Maybe major league coaching can get him straightened out.  I don't like counting on a lot of prospects proving out, rather than just a few.

Pro baseball has vastly different dynamics than the other major professional sports. 

Somewhat like many, particularly the NBA, the draft is typically more about what scouts dream a prospect could become versus how good they actually are at the moment. 
But what is particularly different about baseball is that undeveloped prospects aren't going to spend their time at the end of a bench not actually playing. They're going to end up at some level in the minors where they will play, coaching will focus on developing as a player (with little attention to things like a team winning), and get what the pros think is the best chance to develop. 
Of course many top prospects still never make it in the big leagues, but that is more about the difficulties in determining real potential rather than lack of chances to develop. 

Reasons to stay in school include improving one's draft round (more money), getting a degree, wanting to "accomplish something" in college baseball, or actually wanting to learn something more in college; but not simple baseball development.
Actually, a new reason for some is that in this brave new world, some kids could likely make more on NIL than on a minor league contract. Not clear that would be Bruno.
