Greg Maddux was listed at 6 foot. So he was probably closer to 5'11'' since they always add some. I think he turned out alright.
Muggsy Bogues was listed at 5'3" and he turned out ok too. I doubt there are any major colleges lining up to recruit 5"3" point guards.
There is a science to identifying good pitchers and Height is one of the factors that is considered.
There are always exceptions, but major colleges play he percentages.

I'm not saying LSU should be beating the bushes for 5'11" pitchers. However, particularly at the college level, 6'5" isn't a prerequisite for being a good pitcher. My main point was when you've got a kid who is a good prospect and is the son of a coach at your school (and therefore doesn't need a full scholarship), why would you not take a chance on the kid. Seems dumb to dismiss it out of hand.
