> I am a coach at a Juco in Oklahoma and I have seen him around our games and our regional tournament for a couple of years now. I have heard he has been working with a sports agency. I know Gary Ward personally. He has been working for New Mexico State and Oklahoma State as a fundraiser and scouting and recruiting. His son Rocky is the head coach at NMSU and his youngest son Roger is was my boss at Northeasten Oklahoma A&M JC for the last 4 years.

That's all very interesting, but the fact is, that whole crew has gone the way of the buffalo. They might have fancy jobs at big schools, but in hitting circles, their flat-earth thinking has been replaced with better ideas such as rotation around a stationary axis, transfer mechanics and top hand torque. Their earlier ideas won't be around much longer.
