Spoke with a Little League parent today who told me there was a game which ended with the score 22-21 last season...

...And there was ONLY 1 HIT!

Little League Presidents/Board Members: You MUST wait until age 10 for kid pitch!

30 years ago today, the greatest college football movie of all-time was released: “The Program.” 🎥

If done right, this film would be so ripe for a reboot including issues such as:

- NIL
- Transfer Portal
- Conference Realignment
- 12-team playoff
- Legalized sports gambling

Honest Truth:
Coaches don’t need to ask if you’ve been working out.

Your body is your billboard & tells everybody what you’ve been up to.

Poor body language tells everyone:

YOU GAVE UP
YOU CAN'T BATTLE
YOU'RE NOT MENTALLY TOUGH

Positive body language tells everyone:

YOU WON'T GIVE UP
YOU WILL BATTLE
YOU'RE MENTALLY TOUGH

@JimMWeber Saw a HS kid with all his friends in the grocery store carrying a football. I knocked it out of his hands and yelled fumble. None of the friends jumped on it and they all just looked at me. I laughed & im glad you all understand:)

If you want to be a head coach, AD, principal, superintendent, etc. listen to this until it is embedded in your mind.

@CoachPerk @SteveMurry44 @CoachCashion Flip with the bottom hand and you’re always changing hands on the bat. Flip with the top hand and its catch and flip. Bat stays in the same hand the whole time. That’s what I thought and learned it that way because of it. Looks better IMO.

Less than 5% of high school athletes make it to every summer workout.

Guess what percentage of high school athletes play sports in college?

Yup, you guessed it...

Less than 5%!
