🚨 A MUST LISTEN for all amateur ballplayers wanting to play in college. Long but SO MUCH VALUE here!

Alabama HC Rob Vaughn on college baseball recruiting and the type of player you truly want in your program, no matter the level.

“Our job in college baseball, yes, it's to win games. Yes, it's to develop big leaguers, and yes, it's all the things that we all talk about in recruiting, but more than anything, it's to prepare these kids to be successful for whatever comes next. And man, as good as the talent is in this league, as good as the talent is on this team, not all of them are going to be career big leaguers, you know. And I think what makes Tyler Fay’s journey so awesome, is in a world that is inundated with particularly moms and dads that want your kid to cut and run when when they're not starting every day or they're not playing every day. You see at one end of the equation, you either get the parents are like, ‘Hey man, put your head down to work. We got to get better.’ And you get the parents that feed into the narrative, ‘man, they're not giving you a chance. You got to go. You got to leave.’ the thing about him that makes him so special is regardless of whether Tyler's a 20-year big league or not, that guy's going to be a smashing success in life because when things get hard, he doesn't cut and run. He's not sticking his hand out looking for the next easy way and who's going to pay me more. He’s the I'm going to put my head down. I'm going to work and I'm going to get better.”

Guys like him are the exact reason you believe in what you recruit. You believe in makeup, you better hunt makeup because that guy has that in spades. And that's why he deserves every ounce of what he's getting right now.”

[MACC Baseball @MACC_Baseball]

If you believe in switch hitting, tough nosed middle infielders, then Bogie is a guy to get in on. Can handle both sides of second base, handles the bad well for both sides and is a tremendous guy / teammate to be around.

[Troy Silva @TroyPSilva]

1 unselfish AB
can win a game

1 high baseball IQ play
can win a game

1 hustle play
can win a game

1 great base running read
can win a game

….And it could be early in the game!

If you REALLY want to win, dominating the “minor” details leads to “major” W’s!
