It's kind of like the Little League World Series. Every year there is some kid that dominates- usually on the mound and then they go to high school and no one ever hears about them again.
Yes, you are correct. I?ve just been around many baseball coaches who remember one or two foot seasons and stick with a guy too long, hoping that potential they once saw, develops. And it never does. Baseball is much more unpredictable than even basketball recruiting.
