I will take a bit of a different approach and talk about what it takes to be a CF at a top 30 program. If that is your son’s current and realistic 60 time that unfortunately will not make the footspeed grade at that level from what I have seen.

All 3 OFs at son’s school are pretty solidly sub 7.0 and All American CF is sub 6.5. Son’s best friend played a lot of CF for UT last year. He is 6.4-6.5 guy. Their entire OF at UT is projected to be 6.5ish guys.

Your son’s other metrics would all get him into the conversation as an OF at those top 30 schools so don’t despair too much. Son played on summer team which ended up with 11 D1 guys from top 40 programs to mid tier programs. Only 4 committed before summer after junior year. All of those were pitchers. Rest late summer including the UT kid. You still have plenty of time.

Good luck!!
