ATHENS — Charlie Condon is looking more and more like the best baseball player in the nation at Georgia.

The experts agree, as the 6-foot-6, 215-pound Condon was recently ranked No. 1 on the MLB draft big board.

“He’s special,” UGA coach Wes Johnson said. “As a coach, you hope to get one every 7 to 10 years like this.”

The Bulldogs’ sophomore won SEC Player of the Week honors for the second time this season on Monday after yet another dynamic week at the plate and in the field.
