A Catcher running a 6.8 sixty will end up playing in a great college program provided the rest of their game fits what coaches are looking for.
it is amazing how athletic some of these Catchers are coming out of high school these days. Just from my relatively small town (population 200,000 in Wisconsin) there is a 2019 Catcher who runs 6.9 committed to Missouri State, a 2018 who runs 7.0 heading to Creighton, and another 2018 Catcher heading to Gonzaga who runs a 6.9
And I bet they would be staying local if there was a program there...
