Be willing to fail.
It means you’ll show up, you’ll commit, you’ll do the work, you’ll innovate, you’ll find a way.
If you aren’t willing to fail, the only thing you’ll succeed at is being average.
Keep showing up.
What some people see as “crazy” other people see as “committed”.
What some people see as “different” other people see as a “separator”.
What some people see as “too much” other people see as “passion”.

Truly blessed to be committed to play football at the University of Southern Miss! I especially want to thank all my coaches that have helped me along the way! Go Golden Eagles!!! #USMTTT@Coach_Hall7@coach_pennock @oscoachb13 @tracylampley @CBCochran11
Upperclassman-Your job is to be a leader! Help the younger guys! Your role is NOT, I repeat NOT to be the cool guy that makes the underclassman's lives miserable. Represent yourself, your parents, your coaches, and your program the RIGHT WAY!
College baseball is one big test of character. If you let other people’s opinion of you dictate your own self-belief, you’re done. Don’t let others define you. Put the work, then play with complete confidence and fire. Preparation and discipline beat doubt every day of the week.
Assuming I take a college coaching position in the future, I truly will not care about your exit velo, launch angle, etc. I WILL care about your desire to win, your passion for being a great teammate, and of course your ability to produce game winning results.
Players..."Pro Prospects"...YOU will be a reflection on the scout that signs you. He will vouch for your ability, but more importantly your make-up, work ethic, and toughness. He will SELL you to the organization. YOU are his guy; YOU have a responsibility to come as ADVERTISED!
