Zach Britton was also in the recruiting class and would have been roommates with Kershaw if they had both attended Texas A&M
Shows how much of an underrated recruiter Childress is. He has an eye for elite talent that sometimes doesn't make it to campus
This is 100% inaccurate. Every college program recruits studs who don't make it to campus. This is not a skill set unique to Coach Childress.
Now...I'll give Coach Childress a high grade for mostly getting good pitching talent and developing it well once that talent gets here, but to say Childress is any sort of great overall recruiter is simply a false statement. Just look at our batting order, fielding capabilities, and basic fundamental play and you'll see how far away we are from the elite, powerful, CWS, and championship caliber teams.
Yea, we've cranked out some good pitchers during RC's tenure...but that's where it ends.
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
