We are not in CO this summer as we are taking care of things at home - Congrats to Courtney & Adam! (Can’t find the picture with Adam) #GoBucks

Silence the noise and work for your team…

Happy New Year! Getting ready for a new season! D1 coaches CANNOT go off campus to recruit until June unless it’s a high school tournament/event. #GoBucks #softballseasonaroundthecorner

@beechball_45424 I know nothing about launch angle, so can’t answer that. That’s a good take, but velocity doesn’t make a pitcher better and some people say “it’s easier to hit faster pitching” 🤷🏽‍♀️ (not me)

[Kirin Kumar @Coach2K_OSU]

This past season, two players in the MLB hit over .300 with one at .299. Makes you think - overall, is the hitting worse than past years? What and why is it? Makes me think. #wannatalkhitting #GoBucks

[Kirin Kumar @Coach2K_OSU]

@RPotkey You can do both…

Or anything on social media: likes, DMs, etc.

Things I don’t understand: When there is no parking for college coaches but we have to go park to park to watch games….

FREEMAN!!!

Hitting is 1 of the hardest things to do in sports. To see those that are great in the art of hitting - Ohtani, Spaid, & others - is a beautiful thing. What’s even better? Teaching the art of hitting to make them better than everyone thought possible. #GoBucks #processofhitting

[Kirin Kumar @Coach2K_OSU]

This weekend starts recruiting for D1 programs. @OhioStateSB will not be out this weekend as we have fall games and then our Team Retreat. Our current team does and will always come first. #GoBucks #priorities

[Kirin Kumar @Coach2K_OSU]

So you know - We are getting a lot of email invites to attend travel ball tournaments - D1 coaches CANNOT attend off campus tournaments/games (unless they are high school games) until October 18th. #soyouknow #GoBucks

Happy Rakhi! #RakshaBandhan2025

12U and 14U shouldn’t be pitching at 43feet - Also, why in LLWS girls are wearing masks but the boys are not? Is it required for one and not the other? #randomthoughtsandopinions

[Kirin Kumar @Coach2K_OSU]

Well, had a wonderful dinner after recruiting….Talking hitting with a buddy and demonstrating - then…no lie…a random guy at the table next to us “interrupted to try and tell us how to coach hitting” All I can say, that didn’t last long 😁 #OhioStateSoftball
