Cody pitched his freshman year in 2008 at UCF and then had arm surgery and missed his entire sophomore season in 2009. During that year, Terry Rooney's first at UCF, Cody helped out with the pitching staff and ran the UCF bullpen during games. For his dedication to the team, he was rewarded by having his scholarship terminated by Rooney after that season. So much for Rooney being able to recognize pitching talent. He was drafted out of High Point where he played for former Knight player and coach, Craig Cozart. Cody is a tough guy who has overcome adversity and made himself a successful big league pitcher. Good for him....FIRE ROONEY!!
