Aside from his school placing the majority of the new minor league umpires during the time that has lapsed, he has also been consulted by members of the rules committee.

My FED class has a couple guys who went to Harry's school, including one who is at PBUC at the moment. They have claimed (and so presumably been told) that Harry's, not the Academy, has placed the majority of minor league umpires in the past 10 years, AND that Harry's grads "last" longer than Academy grads in pro ball.

I'd like to see some stats on that...
