Does anyone know the NCAA rule on minimum time a pitcher must have between games? Or if it's based on pitch count etc?

Thanks

There's a rule?

If the arm is still attached, they are eligible . It's up to the coach and the player to figure out if/when they can pitch.

This ain't no little league man.

There's no Wayne Graham rule.

Wish I remembered who but didn't we have someone in our regional a few years ago that threw every game because he knew he wasn't going pro?

I remember the dude pitching like back to back days with 4+ innings the whole weekend

It's like Airbud, there's no rule that says you can't pitch with your dog feet.

Wasn't there a guy that pitched like a hundred and a half pitches not long ago

That was the Davidson pitcher from the 2017 Super Regional. He already had a job lined up to be a dentist or something

That's right

Yes technically there is a rule. However, it can be easily circumvented by fake throwing to a base. So, in reality, there is no rule.

This isn't 11U select ball. Hope that helps.

Was Wayne Graham notorious for this? I know Augie did some questionable things, but don't remember Wayne Graham doing anything like this...

Would be called the Austin Woods rule.

Augie destroyed that kids arm for no good reason.

he was the one that threw 150 (or 160ish) pitches in one game. He was never the same after that if I recall correctly.

I believe you're right.

Wow. That surprises me I figured there was some kind of restriction. Good then. Our entire staff is available. We will probably need them all.

Thanks all!

Gustafson wrote the book.

Taking the mound for the Angels on June 14, 1974, the future Hall of Famer struck out 19 Red Sox hitters over 13 innings in the California Angels' 4-3, 15-inning victory at the Big A. But the most eye-popping stat from Ryan's outing might be his pitch count: 235, according to accounts from the game.

The story behind Nolan Ryan's 235-pitch start

This was the Cliff Gustafson approach. And, if the right arm came off, have him throw leftie next inning.

Gus basically did this to Dressendorfer. He was never the same afterwards.

That article was great. His quote: "In those days, I was my own closer."

Long Live #34.

This is exactly right. I think Gus got his idea from watching women softball pitchers.

Link about Austin Wood and the story. 169 pitches in 13 innings

He was basically a machine

I was there for the Byington walkoffs. Dressendorfer pitched a complete game the night before, and Gus brings him in for relief the next day. Still remember Gus switching left fielders after Dressendorfer had thrown his warmup pitches to give him more time to loosen up. Granted, he only threw one pitch to Byington but it was still pretty ridiculous to bring him in relief the day after a complete game the night before.
