Sean Fisher, who is the pitching lab coordinator, was once a reliever for VT after transferring from Maryland. I remember him as a goofy character who was well loved by his teammates. I have little doubt he helped in the recruitment of Green. To your point about Conrad. Him being out against Clemson leads to a bit of a shuffle in the field as well that messed with their defense and forced a few players to play in uncomfortable positions that led to some defensive miscues. They don't have a Seaver King to make up for any shuffling this year.
