There are hundreds of high school juniors that are 6'+ and throw 85+ right now. Why would a coach "follow" either of the examples here? When? Fall? Senior HS season?

Neither of these juniors is a D1 recruit now. Lower levels have no roster limits. The less selective a D2 or D3 or JUCO is, the more players they might encourage to apply, saying "if he gets in, he can have a spot on the team." Some schools have 50+ players. The ones who get scholarships will have the skills at the time they're recruited; the ones who get playing time will be the ones whose skills fit what the coach needs at the time the games are played. So, would such coaches bother to "follow" these players? They can just encourage them to show up and see what happens.
