Parent venting: I see these stats and it makes me mad as hell. My oldest son was "lightly" recruited by Brown and practically begged Brown to take him as a pitcher. They ultimately offered him a spot but only if he could get admitted on his own - that is, they didn't give him one of the team's "allotted" spots. Fast forward - he doesn't get admitted to Brown but is asked to try out at LSU last year (his first choice of school - Brown was second). Makes it through tryouts and then pitches in 4 scrimmages in the fall work outs - total runs allowed against the LSU line up in those 4 appearances - 0; total hits allowed - 1. Bottom line, no spot so off to Juco.

Somehow I think he'd have much better stats than Brown's current pitching staff if the stats above are the best they have. Brown's pitching staff is gonna get rocked this weekend and I will love every minute of it knowing they passed on my boy.
