hitters: stop hitting the panic button. It’s not “good or bad” it just “is.” How at-bats go is just information. A good season didn’t happen in one day. A bad season doesn’t happen in 1 day. One day at a time. Every day is a new day.
Hitters: Your Swing Follows Your Focus
Be careful going to college camps or showcases! A full recruiting module for players & parents is inside of our school Hitters University. The #1 online baseball academy on Skool. skool.com/hitters-univer…
The #1 prerequisite to being a Baseball Coach: You HAVE to love the game. I hate that that has to be said.
My wife says I am no longer allowed to swing a bat in the bedroom. Should I hit the portal?😂
Why Remote Coaching works: Hitters/Coaches/Parents have skepticism around “remote” coaching effectiveness due to the accepted belief/construct that in person hitting/teaching classrooms is always more effective. I don’t think so. The sweet spot is obviously being able to do…
“Pitchability” isn’t a buzzword. It’s your separator. There are thousands of throwers. There are very few pitchers.
Every action in your load has a consequence. Every move you have to make from setup to “get ready” to hit has an opposite one to get out of that spot. This is why “the setup” is so important.
Every college coach in the country should have a standard message they send the moment they stop recruiting a player. It takes 10 seconds. And it’s 100x better than ghosting a kid who’s been talking with you for weeks or months. Something simple like: “Hey ___, we’re going to…
One of the biggest “malpractices” that has been commonly accepted by our game is bat speed training with a lack of directional focus. This “training” is only good when paired with a directional “constraint” to HIT THROUGH THE BALL FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE & MAINTAIN POSTURE.
In general, nothing is going to reveal more about your swing than hitting vs open angle opposite spin slider with an end goal of consistently hitting it to your pullside gap. (LHH vs RH SL or LH SL vs RHH)
How many more examples of successful coaches who expect a lot out of their players do we need to see before everybody just understands that it works? Tough coaches make tough humans and tough humans lead successful lives. Class dismissed.
PSA for all HS seniors or guys thinking about the portal: Money Talks A lot of coaches out there will lie to your face about playing time, roster depth, etc. But money talks. The “We just don’t have any scholarship left” is BS most of the time. Go where you’re wanted.

This is what it looks like to slide into home plate with the World Series on the line:
Selfish or Unselfish. Watch a kid when he does things that don't benefit him directly. Pick balls in cage, shag, clean dugout after game, pick up or carry equipment, chase a foul ball, reaction when a teammate does well, work on field, etc. It will tell you a lot about how he was…
Playing a player that hasn't earned playing time because of politics is as filthy as it gets. It shouldn't matter who mama and daddy is, how much money they have, or if they're a member of the booster club. Players know when little Johnnie is getting playing time because of…
Humility is a defining characteristic in a coach. “All I know is that I know nothing” - Socrates Discourse with players improves their understanding and coach-ability more than “Do this, don’t do that, because I said so.” Kids need to know the WHY.
