I’m a junior college freshman. How important is velocity when trying to go to a d1 school, or even at your level. I am in a very hard situation and I don’t know what I should do. I am currently at a junior college that has very good connections to 4 year schools and they are established and scouts look at our school for players, and he’s been there for 30 years so he knows colleges. The part that is bad is that the pitching coaches are not good. They are extremely old school coaches and a lot of the stuff they say is just flat out wrong; some examples are that they have told me to keep bending my front knee after I land, they want me to move my hips and upper body at the same time, they don’t like pitchers to counter rotate at all, and there’s more. The school that I was looking to transfer to is not as established, the coach is in his 2nd year. The way he coaches everything over there personally I feel would fit me better. My coaches don’t use a radar gun consistently, they’ve used it twice and I was only up to 86. I am also not very big, I am only 5’7 170lbs so I don’t look like the average d1 guy. My dad and my high school coach both tell me that I will “grow into velocity” and that I should stay at the school I’m at now. I want to transfer because I’ll be in an environment that I agree with and I feel like I’ll be somewhere that I can get better at, but the college I’m at now has better connections to colleges so it will be easier to get seen. If you have any input I’d appreciate it. Love the videos man, good luck on everything your doin!!

Hey man, sounds like you’re in a tough spot. I know many players have dealt with similar things and have been there myself at times. I won’t lie to you, Velocity is important in recruiting and scouting. Your overall pitch profiles probably matter the most - but velocity is definitely in that equation. Consider checking out our remote program we offer through Premier Pitching and Performance. It may give you the tools/guidance you’re looking for, while still being able to remain at the school that will get you more exposure. You can find more at premierpitching.com under the training tab. Best of luck
