I do not have much experience with the quality, but this fall my son's school played the D3 JUCO national champs in a DH. Son's school put up football scores in both games. Yes it was a D3 JUCO vs a D1 school, but son's D1 school isn't exactly a powerhouse or close to it. From what I saw there are good HS's by us that could have beaten them. Maybe because there is so much turnover?

I think it makes sense. Common sense actually. Great pitchers are going P5. Good ones are going D1 and D2. But the time you get to D3 Juco, there's not many kids throwing 90 at that level. Maybe some outliers but for the most part you're not seeing top of the line pitching there.
