I ran across something this week that raised my eyebrow. An SEC college coach absolutely brutalized his player in a large regional newspaper article because of a mediocre season this sophomore pitcher had, after an excellent freshman year.
“I would not be surprised if he plans to transfer,” Coach XXXXXX said. “It may be in his best interest. I don’t have enough confidence in him as a pitcher to utilize him in the postseason. There’s probably a message there for him.”
“Last year, perhaps he overachieved,” Coach XXXXXX said. “He did a lot of great things last year. God bless him. He did a great job for us. This year, he just didn’t make the same quality of pitches. He didn’t have the same movement on his fastball. He made some critical fielding errors."
“He’s never had overpowering stuff. The margin of error for him is very slight because he doesn’t throw exceptionally hard.”
The player was erased from the school's website roster, like he never played. I put the link below for those curious which school. What say you?

Charlie Pell is that you? Sounds like the old Florida football coach. What he used to say during his Sunday show used to make my husband and I gasp.
