Oh, I agree there's a lot more to being a good pitcher, of course. I think the original question was about how recruiters go about predicting velocity. My son's understanding is that colleges or clubs like to use the force plate as a predictor. Don't know if it is true, but that is what he thinks!

He can think that if he wants to. No harm in that. But I scout & recruit HS pitchers and I coach college pitchers. And I don’t look at force plate as a predictor of anything. Nor do any other college coaches that I know. Just sayin’….
