But looking at UCLA's pitcher stats for 2010 they didn't throw inside particularly often (by HBP totals) except for Cole and Garett Claypool.
In college, pitching inside is hazardous because you can't break bat handles and guys can get around on inside pitches with those light bats and get the bigger sweetspot on the ball still - or fist a ball over the infielders.
A lot of college guys get in the bad habit of throwing outside all the time since inside pitching leads to excess hits.
Cole and Purke are not members of that club. :) And I would expect this year that far more pitchers are gonna be going inside to batters as the year goes on.
