@coachzblair10 28 yrs coaching 2 Varsity Sports and the world has changed fellas…
Don’t like it 1 bit but it is what it is. There is a reason why guys like Coach K, Jay Wright and probably 100’s of HS coaches got out.

@anymanfitness You ain’t wrong and speaking for baseball and softball, if you ain’t playing travel, you’re probably not seeing great Competition. Sad state of affairs

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@HaloTerritory 100% correct… been saying this for the last 4-5 yrs. No way the human body evolved this much in 15-20 yrs to allow for this many guys throwing 100 mph nowadays. Virtually impossible

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@SahilBloom @coachzblair10 Yep… crazy world we live in

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@coachzblair10 @DMEASrecruiting I hate it all but…
The problem with it is it’s all great until it ain’t…. The top 5% of kids can do whatever they want and will always get a shot because of the natural talent. The kids that get buried are the less talented kids that do it. Camera following a 12 yr old?? 👎

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@CoachSwit Absolutely the worst… I also get mad & go through my guys bags, especially the catchers. They all squirrel away 4-5 balls each. Catchers are good for a good 7-10 in their bags. Usually pearls to.

@CoachMikeHillSF TE trips (Trey) is a pain in the ass…

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@CoachMarcusHill LL is a great intro to baseball. It’s badly needed to get kids playing this great game & figure out the better kids. People treating it like travel are the problem. IMO this is where the BS specializing starts. We were a lot better off when every kid played LL baseball

@OEBMcNerney @ButchBaseball29 I know a couple of college baseball coaches that are in the dugout rather than be at 3B like they always were. I asked them. They said w the new digital wristband sign system, they can run the offense more efficiently from the dugout and coach up the on deck hitters better.

@HoopsWeiss No shit Greggy… Covid hit and an entire group of HS and College Athletes lost a year. Diff is College kids got their yr back and the HS kids didn’t. We actually compounded the problem by giving multiple years back to college athletes and then the Portal 5x’d the shitshow

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@mar5hallhoops For every 1 well run AAU team, there’s 100+ horribly run teams that cost a ton, zero coaching and most of the kids on the team can’t sniff a D3 Juco.

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@CoachSwit The D1 College Baseball world is a wild place right now… Some schools have 34 full rides, some have 11.7 split 25 ways, all competing for the same championship??? NIL out of control, Small D1s, D2s & D3s getting fleeced. Transfer Portal is a shitshow. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@DanClarkSports He’s been built up and treated special his whole life… what do anyone expect???

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@JimmysSeafood @baltimoresun Yah buddy… Unapologetically American. F**k Em

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@SteveTeel17 I tell my HS guys all the time… you guys gotta learn how to hit & get hits. They all know how to swing, but swinging ain’t hitting. Hit it where they ain’t

[Steve Strife @SteveStrife]

@TweetsbyCoachP Volleyball, Cheerleading are both easier… dance, gymnastics are year round. Soccer is yr round
