To me it’s all about culture in this one. One side has dudes begging to pitch and compete on days rest and the other side plays with average hustle at best and it takes convincing for them to play hard. Starts before the game.

coaching staff has 15 years of pro ball playing experience and I have ZERO of that. Pretty good baseball staff put together at D3 level. Some of the best coaches I know are at this level. PSA’s and PARENTS are encouraged to do more research on D3.
These guys are resilient in every which way and led by an incredible leader and person in Jan. I wish those players and coaching staff nothing but the best moving forward. Our trips to BSC early season were some of my best memories over these last few seasons.
@BSCBaseball
I’ve been coaching for 12 years now. The initial emails, calls, texts to a potential student-athlete that does not respond is in the thousands. Am I missing something? Have the courtesy to at least respond with “not interested.” Unfortunate trend in recruiting.
#behumble
My admiration for D-3 coaches is off the charts, especially recruiting. It is one of the hardest parts of the job to over come egos and misinformation that some PSA’s have.
A number I can confidently say I had very little to do with! Fortunate to be with
@CoachBeaz
@moscagr
@CoachCodyEllis
@B_Moore33
and twitterless Mike Solbach over the years and some pretty fantastic players that keep wanting those W’s!
I find it ridiculous that players have to worry about
@MLB
draft while playing post season college baseball. Would NBA move draft during Sweet Sixteen? I doubt it!
Our season came to an end yesterday. We just want to thank all the players, their families, our support staff, and everyone involved with Lynchburg baseball for an incredible season. P.S. 2022 we ready 😈🔥🤫
These are the kids that people are ripping. I’m all about competing and tenacity. But I’m also all about “praying” and humbleness. Let the kids be kids and stop the criticism ADULTS.
Rhode Island's Lucas Tanous explains why his team went to Kentucky’s dugout to touch Mason Goodnight’s jersey before their
#LLWS
game.
Mason, a former teammate of the kids from Kentucky, died 2 years ago. His dad is one of Kentucky’s coaches.
This COVID-19 is no joke. Every corner you turn there is more bad news and grim projections. What it doesn’t account for his a togetherness and bond of people. There are a lot of really smart people figuring out a way to defeat this. I choose FAITH over Fear!
I think a lethal word in our field is “projects” especially as a labeled “D1 Guy” or a perfect “D3 Guy.” Who cares? When coaches talk like that, it clouds the PSA’s own judgement of reality sometimes. They very well could be that fit but let the kids attitude and play decide
So thankful this holiday season for my relationship with JESUS! He has surrounded me with an amazing family, friends, university, coaches, and wonderful student athletes. Grateful he loves me so much to put all these people in my life!

Prayers for the Gimbel family. This world lost an incredible person this week but there is solace knowing that Lloyd is now with our great Heavenly Father. 🙏
You were a great coach, a friend, and LOVED our Hawks! A Father to 3 tremendous young men that will carry on your legacy. You are now in a better place. Thank you for everything Coach

I really enjoy the PSA’s you talk to that commit other places and don’t let you know. Then you see it on Twitter for their 15 mins of twitter fame. Ah the joys of recruiting.
This is terrible. Why penalize the programs that are committed to trying to compete this Winter and have been already. If it truly is about “participation.” Per NCAA, another poor decision as it relates to the well being of student-athletes.
The run continues!

So let me get this correct? FSU is penalized for an injured player and Michigan is rewarded for cheating? Not sure I’m on board with the direction of college football’s “brand.”

The red tops have been kind to us over these past two seasons‼️

Why are folks so focused on driving the Seniors “Out into the real world?” Tough way to look at it. Pretty simple, go back if you want or don’t! There doesn’t need to be a label to it. EVERY situation is different. 🤷♀️

The kids that do believe in the culture of your program and understand what it’s all about are so respected in my book because they took the TIME to understand. The positive outweighs the negative and it’s why we do what we do.
