Having a mentor on-field to steer the goal towards our shots. Genius! Why didn't I think of that!?!

Even double speed on youtube looks physics defying. I'm guessing that's posted at 1/3rd or 1/4th speed, so something like 8-10bps? I've seen a few shooter videos where the shooter is capable of that throughput, but I've yet to see a hopper clearing mechanism that can manage it. Was that with a realistic hopper clearing mechanism?

Definitely not. This was with our prototype mounted upside down with a very ideal gravity feed solution. We just wanted to see how fast we could get balls through the shooter and to see how much it slowed down while we did so.

Tune in tomorrow!

I don't think that boiler meets regulations. Are you sure it's 8ft 1in tall?
