I also have seen it with Western Illinois and UNC Charlotte. I just have begun to wonder if we are overexaggerating whether you have to throw 90 as a rightie or 85 as a leftie to be considered. UNC Charlotte only had one at 90 and the others were low to mid 80's and struggled throwing strikes. Western illinois had their friday starter and then went downhill fast and had no one throwing 90 on Sunday.
I talked to some friends that have kids playing and asked them to start looking and they were the same. Mid-Week and some Sunday guys are not real good pitchers.

No UNC Charlotte starter was just touching 90 this past weekend. Well above, saw plenty of 93, 94 + 95.
