One of my sons is getting ready for his upcoming pro season and is also coaching at a local high school. He asked me to feed him in the cage the other day. The machine they have there is not the brand I prefer. it is not a JUGS. And, predictably, it didn't go so well. The machine was set at 90 and balls were all over the place, including high and in. It didn't make for a productive BP session and really wasn't safe. I was consulted by whoever made this purchase, and maybe they were trying to save some money, but the recommendation here is stick with the company that's been doing it for five decades, JUGS Sports.
