Oh you hit 4 hole but are too good to bunt? Because Oregon State’s 4 hole just laid a bunt down with bases loaded in a 1-1 game for the College World Series. Sometimes helping the team win means putting your ego to the side. Whatever it takes!
Extremely thankful and excited for this opportunity! Can’t wait to get to work! Thank you to all of the people at Russellville for their love and mentorship. I am blessed beyond measure.

‘Twas the night of Christmas (10 PM) and all through Scottsboro not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. Except two seniors out long tossing on their own trying to get better. I’ll take texts telling me the lights to the field are on all night if this is what I come find!
Man I’m thankful. I’m thankful for my guys. I’ve needed them more everyday than they could have possibly have needed me. Im thankful to coach and lead alongside my best friends everyday. This has been a crazy year 1, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’m a better man bc of it
Received this email this morning from one of my students at my previous school. In a time clouded by uncertainty and discouragement, this was the greatest reminder of my why! It’s true when they say you will need your students and players more than they need you.
Completely opinion based statement im about to make but can new age/old school baseball coaches coexist without harassing the others methods? At the end of the day, your ability to Coach is reflected in your players ability to get the job done. Also, your impact > your knowledge.
I wish these people pointing the finger at Saban for this Tua injury would just put the headset on for one series and call the shots and see what happens. Sit on your couch and worry about your job, not arguably the greatest coach in the business.
Out with the old and in with the new! Thanks to Scottsboto Dugout Club, our supporters and all the volunteers that helped make this happen. We got better!
It was an honor to be able to serve at last nights

@AgapeScottsboro
Our guys had a blast and loved the opportunity to give back! We hope to be able to serve more in the future. Thanks for having us!
I am so proud of this team. The toughest group of competitors I’ve ever been around. I’m heartbroken that it’s over, but the impact they made on my life will stay with me forever. I love each and everyone of our guys!
Fought til the very end! We are so proud of this team and all they have accomplished. This group has created a legacy that will carry on in this program for years to come. Thank you to all of you who made this such a special and memorable season!

@RussellvilleBB

@hunter_briles
We are proud to have one of the best facilities and venues in the state! Our facilities allow our players to reach their fullest potential and our community gives us the best home field advantage in the state! Thank you for the recognition
@HSBaseballField
HS Coaches... Please don’t go tell a kid how to hit when he’s worked all off-season and is having success when “launch angle swing” is in your vocabulary.
Stick to writing the lineup card and figuring out how many bunts and hit and runs you’re going to call 🥱
Super proud of my guy
@DevinBuck10
for signing today! Dude logged a lot of hours behind the scenes to make this happen. Big things coming his way because he’s just getting started. Time to get to work..
Senior MIF/RHP Tanner Barclay recently made a 31 on his ACT! He lives above the bar in everything he does! 📚 🎣 ⚾️ We can’t wait to see how all of his hard work pays off for him this spring! Super proud of you, stud!
If you want to go places you’ve never been, you’ve got to be willing to do things you’ve never done. Everyday we ask ourselves, “Will what I do today, help us win a championship in May?”
#ThePackWay
Success isn’t guaranteed, but it definitely isn’t for the weak. I’m so proud of our guys and their commitment to this program and each other. I get to coach some dudes! Pack Strong 💪🏻
Super proud of our guys for responding last night and clinching the first round at Golden Tiger Stadium. My man
@DevinBuck10
had a senior night he will remember for the rest of his life. Don’t throw the post when he’s in the middle of the field

The Scottsboro baseball team honored the Scottsboro varsity boys basketball team for its Class 6A Final Four, Northwest Regional Championship season prior to Thursday’s game vs. North Jackson. Head coach Jason Bell threw out the first pitch.
Colton is a stud! Pure hitter, outstanding defender, our ace on the mound, a monster in the weight room, a great teammate and one of the most elite competitors I’ve ever been around. Someone is going to get an absolute steal with this dude.
Working on Off-Season Development profiles for our guys. One of the many resources
@chuckbox1969
has inspired me to pursue. We’re only as successful as the plan we put in place.. sometimes it’s just bigger than the game.
In a society consumed with self glorification, I pray this is the mindset the players I coach adopt. This is the mindset of great leaders and men. It’s bigger than yourself.
Look up my name, you won't find any articles and barely at stats. Turn on the news, you won't see me in an interview. Go to my Hudl, you won't see much highlights. Go to our practice, you'll see me working hard for the team. I'm Lee Beatty, I'm unnoticed and helping the team win.
You think they know it until you test it. Testing team culture today and our understanding of the “Pack Way.”
“Anything can be achieved when everyone knows where we’re going and how we’re going to get there.”

#ThePack
Who you are some of the time is who you are all the time. You’ll end up achieving whatever standard you set for yourself as a player and in life.
You’re either a guy that cuts corners and allows it...
Or not.

@shsbaseball4
It was awesome to start my career off against the guy that was my reason behind coaching. Even more special for you to talk to our guys after the game and encourage them. It’s more than baseball. Lotta love coach. We got better by competing against you guys.
Kid is BIG time. Elite baseball IQ. Unbeatable work ethic. Great teammate. Leader on and off the field. AND can absolutely ball. Will change someones program at the next level undoubtedly
Can’t say enough of how proud I am of these guys!
This is a special team. Every one of these guys serve in whatever role they are asked to do and no one cares who gets the credit. They don’t blink when times get tough. They play together.
G.R.I.T.
I can not wrap my mind around the absurdity of the decision to take everything away from these guys. Absolutely heartbreaking.
@NCStateBaseball
has a squad full of relentless warriors who deserved to go finish. The baseball world thanks you.
Know the moment man.. dude not only clutched up and hit an absolute bomb, but in his LAST AT BAT in Dudy Noble in front of the University he has given his heart and soul to.. I would’ve thrown my bat in the stands tbh.. PSA: you can play with passion and not be disrespect th game
Bama til I die, but THIS ⬇️
Coaching is so much more than the wins and losses. Serving young men and inspiring them to believe they are capable of so much more than the limitations others put on them is a BLESSING!
There are two wolves that live inside each of us. One is anger, jealousy, bitterness, and deceit. The other is kindness, humility, empathy, and compassion. Which one wins? The one you feed.
Extremely honored to have had the opportunity to learn from one of my greatest coaching inspirations.
@CoachDeggs28
Thank you for being a light.

Our program is better because
@SpurgeonBrayden
is in it! One of the most coachable, hard working and servant leaders I have ever been around. This young man is successful because he earns it
In my 1st year as a head coach, during a challenging time, a coaching peer told me, "Even Jesus couldn't keep 12 apostles happy." Moral of the story: if you try to please everyone, you will please no one. Lead by conviction and live with the result.
