Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

Could y’all imagine cheering for a team that didn’t make it to Omaha?

That must suck.

I can. It's kinda like cheering for team that never makes it to ATL or the playoffs....

The pitch count stuff is just new age baseball based off analytics and injuries…Some studies on it thinks injuries are more mechanics issues rather than overuse…. I feel it is a combination of the two……Look at the older pitchers….. Nolan Ryan once struck out 19 hitters over 13 innings in 235 pitches thrown.

It is mostly mechanics because Nolan didn’t believe in torquing the elbow so much. He threw his fastball and curveball using different grips and kept the same arm angle. That’s why he lasted for so long.

Simmer down Mark.

Don't pile on and hurt our players, we are going to Omaha!!! And that was brutal how they showed that LSU coach non stop when he was retiring and losing by a landslide.

So annoying. Like watching the New Year’s ball drop over the course of 10 minutes

If you weren't already glad enough to see them staying at home....

Heaven help us.

Holy craps! I just saw Arkansas lost!

Nolan was also a genetic freak who threw mostly with his legs.

Yes. Yes it is.

Yes, he also believed most of pitching power came in your legs. But as volbeast said, there were a lot of older pitchers who threw high pitches for years. I think college is a little different when protecting guys though.

I think it is bc of how many pitches several of those guys use to throw…. It doesn’t seem like pitch counts is having much of an effect….I saw a pic of a current pitcher and a human arm is not suppose to bend that way…. It was freaky looking.

Good god. Guess there's a reason Nolan Ryan's advertising niche was pain relieving creams

I was gonna tell a joke about a grocery meat department but I figured I'd just butcher it. And the stakes are too high...............
