Well, here we go again.
Everyone that responds to this question pretty much takes the politically correct line.
Paraphrasing here: both schools are pretty terrific. you just have to make a choice and go. They both pretty much send the same number of guys and chick to PBUC.
The guys that lean toward Jimmy tell you that Jimmy is at every class and field mechanic session. He uses only Minor League umpires because they know 2 man mechanics better than the Major League guys that permeate Harry's School.
Harry's school advertises the fact that he uses Major league umpires that have 70,000 (just kidding) hours in the Show.
SO!! You're still not sure, right??
Here's what I know. Mr. Evans DOES teach most of the Classroom sessions. He is on the field every day during the field mechanics. He not only teaches Rules, Field Mechanics and Game Management, he also teaches his philosophys on life, how to be true to yourself , and much more.
I am biased. I attended Jim's Academy in 1998 and came out of there a much better person. I would have gotten a job except I was 55 at the time.
Hopefully, a Harry grad will come out and tell you his feelings for the School he attended.
I think honest dialogue between grads of the two schools will help you make up your mind on which way to go.
As a Jimmy grad, I am saying that Evans Academy is better.
I hope Harry's guys say the same things about his school.
Just trying to liven up the posts, Carl.
