I see that front leg off and on the ground during the load phase alot in the majors and College. My son's coach hates it and say's you'll never hit off speed with that leg kick. Thoughts?
That’s the best description I’ve ever heard.Tebow is a I-A level Adam Dunn with speed.
Yeah, but he was a bigger hitter as Snake Doctor.

I hope he makes it to the league and his team gets to the world series and he wins it with a walk off grand slam on a 3-2 count with two outs in the bottom of the 9th inning in Game 7.
I’m saving my liver for Thursday basketball and St. Patrick’s Day, but I’ll be sure to pour one out for him.Tebow cut; now he can concentrate on the XFL. Sas is going to get drunk over this news tonight.

Yeah thats my position as well. Thats a great video BTW. Shared with my son and I am going to change his load technique and hitting coach. And you're right about if you see the best doing it, there's a reason. Funny thing is he talks about Trout all the time as being one of the great hitters and yet he'd say that offspeed would kill him. Yet we just saw that he handles off speed just as well as the inside heat. One thing about Trout is the dude has put a ton of time into hitting and he really has no weakness. Cant say the same or Harper.Lol he’s wrong. You just have to be able to keep your hands back and weight centered.
ARod, Matt Holiday, Mike Trout, Joey Bautista, Cabrera, Posey, Harper...list goes on. Many of the best hitters utilize the higher leg kick to generate power. Hint for your son’s coach: if you see the best of the best doing it, there’s a reason for it.
This shows some good clips (especially second one of Trout):

He got sent down, not a shocker. Question is will it be St. Lucie in high A where he starts, or at AA Binghamton....the Rumble Ponies.
St Lucie, because the money goes to the Mets organization.

He needs to go to AA right away if he wants any chance of working his way up.
