👀 NEW LOOK FOR THE GORILLAS

Pittsburg State Football has officially unveiled its new Nike uniforms ahead of the 2026 season.

The reveal comes after Pittsburg State announced a return to Nike through a new 10 year partnership earlier this year, marking the first football uniforms under the new deal.

The most important thing in ⚽️ is the players.

But in 🇺🇸 youth soccer, we’ve gotten it backwards.

We’ve made parents, leagues, tournaments, club names, and trainers the priority, everything except the players.

[Coach Jeff Barnes @JeffBarnes52]

As an AD, here’s a reminder for parents:

Competition is hard.
Winning is hard.
Losing is hard.
Being coached is hard.
Accountability is hard.

Competitive sports were never meant to be comfortable.

If you don’t want your child to face hard things, don’t sign them up for competitive athletics.

The struggle is the lesson.
The adversity is the teacher.
The hard is the point.

@mlycan12 Some good points.

I have no sympathy with recruiting though. D1 soccer coaches aren't traveling America looking for undiscovered gems. Soccer was the 1st team sport to outsource recruiting to camps and "academies." Most of you have no work effort when it comes to recruiting.

Not enough people are talking about @JCCCBaseball

The #1 ranked team in @NJCAABaseball is 56-2 on the year & is in the midst of a 40 (!!!) game win streak.

They've also hit a record-setting 188 HRs (& counting) this season.

🚨 BOOM! President Trump just signed a massive Executive Order to SAVE COLLEGE SPORTS from the NIL/transfer portal arms race!

• Athletes limited to ONE transfer without sitting out

• Max 5 seasons in a 5-year window

• Effective August 1

• Non-compliant schools lose federal funding

Trump delivered exactly what he promised. The Wild West is OVER

OMG! This is like a timeshare for a Farm. I see great potential in this idea, even if only done on a smaller scale. Take a look and share your thoughts in the comments. I don't know about y'all but this is what you call a GROWcery store. #Inspirenaire

"Get ahead with strikes, get them out with balls."⁠
⁠
As command improves, you actually earn the right to throw less strikes.⁠
⁠
Will Vest only threw his CH in zone 16.3% of the time last year.⁠
⁠
He generated a 44.8% chase rate and 38.5% miss rate in 2025.

[College Soccer Truth ™ @ImCollegeSoccer]

So many players commit to their dream school and then they sit the bench for the first 2-3 years when they could have been successful at so many other schools. You have to decide if you want to be on a college soccer team or play for a college soccer team.
