How many pitchers at the MLB level have Maddux stuff, not many that why he is a hall of famer

alot of players who threw 84-85 mph in hs went to college and improved and became much better. Bily Wagner and Roger Clemens to name a few.

Maddux threw only three pitches in High School...fastball, curve and change. He was 90-95mph and the fastball and change both had a nice tail, but did not move 18". He did have very good control however.
