I think we've all helped perpetuate coaches get lazier when it comes to recruiting. We spend money in droves for showcases, camps, velocity increase training, laser measurements, etc. What's more, we package all that up for them and then ship our kids off to their doorsteps. I think there are a lot of good coaches that still work hard to look at the finer points (outside of metrics), but the low hanging fruit is in massive supply these days for them. Literally every coach can use more time. Every coach wants to be as efficient as possible. You might need one SS, but you've got 352 of them begging to come play for you. So you can afford to take the 15 of those who all run 6.50s, have 100 mph exit velos, and 90 mph INF velos and then feel confident that one of those 15 will fill the hole for you. Are you looking at the all finer (non-metric) points of those 15 guys? Maybe. Probably. But you did whittle that massive stack of resumes down to a more manageable size using their metrics to some degree. And if you don't do that, you won't be coaching much longer. Time is the most precious commodity any of us have. Yes, you might miss out the next Boggs, but you only need a couple/few of each recruiting class to actually work out for you.
