Until that happens, it will be more of the same.

*this is about the Cajuns, but currently holds true at pretty much every college baseball program in D1

93-96 with a great breaking ball is all well and good (1) in the bullpen, and (2) if those pitches can be located with any consistency

Teams need guys with three good pitches to start so they can get through the order 2-3 times. We don't really have that. I watched Hunter Moody throw mid 80's FB and become All American.

Exactly what I mean. I don’t care if it’s 84 mph if all of the other attributes are there

You aint getting Devey. He's a local investor and business owner and he aint giving up the money he's making to come coach pitchers.

It's all about hanging zeros. Nobody cares how it gets done.

Yea, many layers to that success. He could very well be one of the best to ever do it.

Yep. The “strike everyone out” mentality is probably the biggest reason that pitching sucks…across the country

In his spare time he helped countless people fix their screwed up lives.
