Excited to announce that I have accepted a D1 assistant coaching position at VMI. I have been chasing this dream for a long time and now it’s time to go to work!
#Keydets
Introduced a delayed video feed during BP rounds this week. Have it timed so immediately after the round the hitter can come watch their swings. Highly recommend for “in the moment” swing and feel conversations with the hitter.

Hoping these “Diamond Daily Vitamins” can help while you are social distancing and stuck in your house. It is critical to STAY READY!
Shout out to the kids from South Augusta for helping with the drills as well!

RECRUITING UPDATE:
My piece of advice is to continue to work at your craft, compete like crazy when you get the chance, and enjoy playing the game you love! Everything will work out one way or another

It’s never easy leaving great people, but I’m excited to start the next journey. Thank you everyone for all the laughs, love, and memories! Next stop
@VMIbaseco
After taking some time to reflect on the recent tragedy one thing remains constant- life is too short and fragile to not tell those around you that you love them every single day. Be present, be kind, and celebrate life every chance you get.

I love when people say “we are better disciplined than Pick Central”...state champions in football and girl’s basketball and state final 4 in boy’s basketball...we must not listen to coaching...
