God just had his hand on us. Our bus tire blew going down the highway and we slid over 100 yards at an embankment with almost no control. It looked like we were going to flip and somehow just barely hit the embankment. Our driver was incredible! #Godisgood

This is the exact reason you can’t put your identity in baseball (or any sport). Have passion and love for the game but your purpose on Earth must be much bigger. You were put here for a much greater purpose. God, family, baseball.

In 2011 I threw my last pitch in professional baseball. I tore my labrum and a teammate and his wife looked out for me while I was injured and a long way from home. 9 years later our programs played against each other in his first ever game as a head coach. Proud of you @nysc31 .

I cleaned out my office at Furman today. I always said that I had the best office in the world. Masters Complex is the building that @FurmanBaseRS made a reality, and I was alway honored to sit at that desk. I cannot wait to see what doors God opens next for the Harker family.

My new favorite quote - “I don’t want to teach just baseball, because I don’t want to face the Lord one day and he tells me, ‘I sent you over 600 boys for you to turn into men. I see you turned them into baseball players, but you didn’t turn them into men.” - @CoachRobichaux

Coaches, as baseball season begins remember this. One day your kids will either think that having a Coach for a Dad made for an incredible childhood, or it robbed them of their time with Dad. Be intentional of your time with them. Make them a part of your program. #CoachDad

This guy was a walk-on at @FurmanBaseball that didn’t make the team his freshman year. He told me he was going to make the team the next year. Next year he went from bullpen arm to Friday starter and 2x Carter Grote award winner. No one out works him.. Write your own story! #Rudy

@NCAABaseball @NDBaseball Story is a little misleading. He didn’t make our team as a freshman and was redshirted. came back bigger stronger and throwing more strikes. Was our Friday night starter and captain the next three years and graduated from Furman. Went to ND for grad school. Incredible young man.
