With all of the talk about height being a factor in pitching I thought I'd take a look at a some rosters.
#1 Tennessee list their pitchers at 5'6",5'8",6'3" and 5'7"
#2 Arizona 5'6", 5'9",5'6",5'8"
#3 Arizona St 5'10",5'10"
#4 Alabama 6',5'8",5'11"
#5 Texas Am 5'7",5'5",5'7",6'1",6'
#6 Oklahoma 5'9",5'11",5'6",5'8"
#7 Northwestern 5'6",6',6'1"
#8 Texas 5'10",5'9",5'5"
#9 Michigan 5'11", 5'5",5'7",5'7"
#10LSU 5'11", 5'7", 5'11",6'
#12UCLA 5'10",5'6",5'9",5'8"
Ohio State 5'10",5'11",5'4",6'
Indiana 5'9,5'7,5'3
of the 47 pitchers listed 18 were 5'10" or taller and 10 were 5'6" or smaller
19 were between 5'7" and 5'9"
The shortest is 5'3" and the tallest is 6'3" (Abbott at Tennessee)
I'll leave it to you to draw your own conclusions.
