playball,

I agree there is more to pitching than velo, but that is the first thing RC and scouts look for. I have been on both sides of the debate. 2013 was a location guy , with great off speed and had to learn how to pitch early on because he did not have the velo. He did not get much interest out of high school and went JUCO. 2014 had the velo and received more interest out of HS than 2013. Fast forward to present and 2013 has matured and now has the velo and has signed with a very good mid level D1.

There are many ways to get there but as much as a hate it, velo is the first thing they want.
