Staff Appreciation: Fact that a Division 1 coach lead 2 families to us today is a huge sign the group at Next Step does things the right way

With the help of his dad and some Tom House books and DVDs, Waukee’s Jackson Wentworth has become one of the top high school pitchers in the state. He’s become so good his @MLBDraft stock has rapidly risen over the last few months. https://t.co/dondmjtoMY

Players...What does your coach say about you, when he talks to college recruiters and/or pro scouts? Coaches with credibility earned it by telling the truth! Don't expect an ounce of sugar coating. He will be asked about ur make-up, work ethic, maturity and toughness!

[Drew Bailey @CoachBailey45]

That little college you’ve never heard of most likely has some dudes who throw 88-92, can run, have guys with juice , & a ton of guys who r flat out competitors. Good luck thinking you’re going 2 walk in & be handed a starting spot. College baseball is really good at all levels.

JUCO baseball players are built different 😤✊💪..

[Dan Cevette @DanCevette]

Recruiting 101:

JUCO is a tremendous route for a lot of young players..

• More time to develop skills/body
• Real experience, NOW
• High-level competition
• Core classes that transfer to 4 yr

JUCO Bandits leave campus tough, tested, and built for battle 😤✊

[Next Level Baseball @nextlevelbb]

Players...If your goals are greater than your DISCIPLINE, YOU'RE only fooling YOURSELF!

& if he has an SSK glove...don’t know why, but I’ve never seen a 🤡 w/an SSK🤷‍♂️

Great Event coming up in Omaha. Any uncommitted 2021’s this a must attend event!

[John Rypel @CoachRyps]

Had a 2021 call me yesterday to say he has committed elsewhere, but he wanted to call me before he sent out a tweet. If things do not work at his school of choice that kid will 100% have a home here. Someone behind the scenes is coaching him well.

[Reformed Sports Project @ReformedSptProj]

Sports Parents:
College Coaches are NOT “pay to play” coaches....they don’t owe your kid playing time....ZERO! All playing time at the collegiate level is competed for & EARNED! Please keep that in mind as you bounce your kid from high school to high school to avoid competition.

Amateur Baseball Players

Playing any level of college baseball is an absolute privilege.. it should be taken w/ the highest amount of pride & commitment to success.. what comes after the D means nothing to me..

I know D3 players that would eat several D1 players lunch..

[Jon Robinson @Coach__Robinson]

I hate losing recruits to other programs BUT when the recruit is honest vs ghosting, I have mad respect for him 💯. #honestyisthebestpolicy

[Next Level Baseball @nextlevelbb]

Players.....Tagging more than one college coach in your tweets seeking exposure is almost as bad as posting offers. It looks incredibly bad!

[Jim Schlossnagle @CoachSchloss]

Read below if you want to define “out of touch & completely devoid of empathy for others”..I know of no coach in any sport that supports this...I apologize to the young people affected. #eyewash

[Matt Lisle @CoachLisle]

This should be mandatory viewing for all student athletes.

[Jaxon Van Pelt @JaxonVP25]
