Before Beth Torina went to LSU she was head coach at FIU in Miami.

She was THE go-to pitching coach in South Florida. Getting time with her was close to impossible.

I spent well over an hour last night viewing a lot of the videos on the site. As was mentioned, it's hard to tell when the videos were made. (I guess if I was motivated enough, I could check the coaches roster for the university's to see if they're still there.).

The variety of videos at first glance looks like a gold mine of information, but DFP has made me leary (sp?) of just about every pitching video, and 90% of the hitting videos out there. There's a few good ones, such as the "attitude signs", and I wish the catching-related one was longer.

Actually - I'll add a link if I remember, the one on catcher-umpire interaction had a great suggestion near the end about the catcher being the "victim" for missed strikes by letting the coach be the "bad guy" - i.e. "Blue, my coach is gonna kill me if I can't get that low strike...".

I was having the same problem. For iPhone viewing, I thinks it's called readability mode? Not sure what made me try it, but I hit the bars in the top left of the address bar (it looks like a "left justify" icon from Word). Somehow, that allowed all the videos to load properly.
