re: Coastal Carolina has impressive homerun numbers but in a smaller home stadium

It's a SLIGHTLY smaller field than we have but not enough to make up twice as many home run difference. They recruit lots of big time power guys and it's no secret, it's what Coastal Carolina does and is the MO of their program. They are going to swing and miss a lot, but also if they connect on a 93-94mph fastball, watch out.

I don't doubt they're a better power hitting team than we are, but they do play in a smaller park and against much inferior pitchers. My guess is if they played in the SEC their homerun totals would be about 2/3 of what they are. Still impressive, but not jaw dropping like 91.
