Ok so it seems the consensus is that coaches would prefer the 50% S% 90 mph player over the 65% S% 87 mph player. I would bet my house payment that the 87 mph pitcher would beat the 90 mph player 8 out of 10 games. I have never seen a 50% S% pitcher be successful.

You are probably right but your question was what is more attractive to the college/RC ... you can't ignore the fact that most of them think they can get the 50/90 guy to become a 60+ 90+ guy. All expect the HS prospect P to be stronger and more refined by the time they take the mound in a real game for their college.
