Found this article about LSU baseball signee Collin Strall today in Forsyth County News which is the local newspaper in my community. Thought Id share.

Good article. Thanks for posting. Side-arm pitcher who throws in the 90's should be a welcomed addition to the team.

Good article. Recruits notice the full house at baseball games, as well as the half empty PMAC and the half time exodus at Tiger Stadium. It means a lot to have the fan support! :geauxtigers:

doubt he hits low 90's throwing sidearm. Mid 80's is probably more like it.
From the article in the OP:
"Spurning the D-I programs, Strall went to Tallahassee Community College. Under head coach Mike McLeod, Strall flourished. He went 7-2 with a save in 24 appearances. He had a 2.54 ERA and 63 strikeouts in 60 1/3 innings. He was versatile in middle- and long-relief appearances. He even made one start. He continued tweaking his mechanics – emphasizing lower-body strength – and eventually worked his fastball up into the low 90-mph range.
LSU first saw Strall with the Home Plate Chili Dogs in the Sunbelt Collegiate League, a summer league for college baseball players. Strall threw two innings, and LSU called that night asking if he’d make an official visit."

I saw the article with the quote, and I doubt that it's accurate. If the guy threw low 90's sidearm, he would go straight to MLB from juco. The article I linked is likely more accurate. We'll know for sure this Spring. Sounds like he's going to be a huge asset for us.
