My buddy does HS, NCAA, and has done MiBL. Do you see that as a viable option?

If you have to explain it to the coach, it is not a viable option. NEVER explain to a coach that you just cheated against his team. When the coach came out to "discuss" he has left his position to argue balls and strikes and you basically told him that he is right, you INTENTIONALLY missed pitches and it was going to continue. It can only go down hill from there.
All that being said.....message calls and pitches happen all the time. Unfortounately if you have to explain to the coach what you are doing, the message is lost and the coach thinks you just suck.
