[QUOTE="Quietman6520, post: 944847, member: 6303"] Showcase baseball began with Perfect game. The more perfect game events you play the higher your ranking. If you play for East Cobb, Canes or Team Elite you are ranked higher by default. If you check the PG profiles for all the Tech players you will notice that they all played a ton of PG events. When was the last time Coach Halls staff found a diamond. A guy who couldn't afford to play PG events but is perhaps more hard nosed than current players because he hasn't had everything given to him. It actually isn't just Coach Halls staff that has fallen into this trap. See Clemson, FSU, USC( until they went a different direction this year - tranfer portal). The recruiters who only call these showcase clubs for recruits and don't actually go and see the kid play multiple times are simply Lazy. Coach Burrell fails because he only looks at the numbers. Ex: spin rate eff. mph, etc. These are tools mlb teams use to draft kids but most of these kids don't make it to MLB. Much like Tech pitchers of the recent years, they simply can't throw the ball where it needs to go when they want and certainly can't throw multiple pitches for strikes. Give me 12 pitchers that throw 88 -90 but can locate 3 pitches for strikes in any count and I guarantee you I win more games than 20 guys that throw 95mph without control. I hope you can see my point. [/QUOTE]
