Reply to "Questioning how fast to be small D1 pitcher"

I think it's both.  The main point is that if you throw all strikes at 85, it doesn't matter.  The Velo is the thing they want to see before they look further.  I actually watched a RC/PC who had come to watch my son summer after sophomore year.  They had told our coach they wanted to see him throw 75 pitches so they could see what he looked like several innings in.  I think he had 11Ks in 5 innings, but the RC was actually saying...come on...hit 90  to himself (he had started off around 88-89).   When he hit 90, they contacted him that night to offer.  It's like a box they have to check.
