[QUOTE="Squints, post: 935442, member: 822"] It's not my premise originally. Take it up with the Baseball America guys who have said as much multiple times on their podcast the past few years. 'Screwing up' is in quotes because it's largely meant as tongue in cheek. But it's not that far off from reality. I wasn't trying to make a direct comparison them to GT but if you want to go down that road that number is front loaded. Over the last 5 drafts we've had the same amount of players drafted from what I can gather. During that time our on field success has been similar. There's also more to it then that. Just looking at players drafted doesn't take into account the potential lost draft position of players when they leave versus where they could have been had they gone somewhere else or gone pro after high school. You're trying to have a different conversation then I am. Success of the program as a whole at the college level and the professional prospects of the players in that program are not the same thing and aren't always correlated. The mighty Vanderbilt had a similar issue a few years ago where their pitchers had to relearn their pitching motions when they went pro because of what they were taught while in Nashville. Carson Fulmer was the big example for that. [/QUOTE]
