Blex think about it.
You are talking to a college coach 1000 miles away. He has no idea how good the competition is.
I can show you MLB & Mi LB pitchers that had poor stats in college and are every day pitchers.
We weren't asked about stats by any college we talked to. They wanted video to see what you had and didn't have.
If you play weak teams your stats will look marvelous.
Many of the PBLO teams here have relationships with the teams down south so some/most know what the competition is like.
I would be way more impressed with a player that has very good stats playing weak competition vs a player with poor stats playing the same weak competition!
Come on posters, you seem to have way more experience (at the elite/college level) then myself yet some of the comments here are way out in left field.
Further, I would think every college coach has a different way of rating players but the one common parameter is STATS.
I find it hard to believe you were not asked for stats by your college coach but as I said above different coaches have different approaches to the recruiting process. The few college recruiting forms that I have seen has had a spot for both individual and team stats.
