Mississippi State and Omaha-bound Pitcher Trevor Fitts (he’s got a ‘stache in his pic) wanted to grow a beard but MSU’s Coach John Cohen has never allowed them. So he made a Powerpoint to argue his case that beards would carry State to Omaha.
Fitts argued valiantly and won. They’ll see Oregon State in Omaha this weekend.
Some highlights:
“…a pitcher can rub his beard and get a slight moisture…to get more movement”
“Ozzie Smith had a beard.”
“…the mustache can come off as creepy.”
Read it here at Hail State Beat. Thanks to @section925 for the tip.
