I heard some mention that previous coach was making them throw weighted balls and more pitches during the week than most do with normal balls. That's why they were throwing heat which is what Johnson preferred. the arm can't handle that tho

Heavy sled workouts, weighted balls and tweaks in mechanics is what Wes is known for along with implementing technology.
Pitchers being worn out before they get to college due to specialization is the main factor.
We've had freshmen in the fall that had to rest for 2 weeks to a month before getting on a program because the arm was taxed from HS playoff run plus summer ball.
It is unfortunate but TJ and arm injuries aren't going away any time soon unless things change below the college level.
