𓄿 San Jac Ravens Recruiting Coordinator, ABCA Nat. Assistant Coach of the Year 2018. 28 JUCO World Series, 5x Champs, 9x Runner Up, All
@NJCAA
Nat. Records!
This was the most telling moment in American History. You are a very sad sad speaker
@nancypelosi
. Regardless of your political stance, you just ripped up a speech that celebrated hero’s, children families of murdered soldiers. That was pathetic.
In case you haven’t been paying attention... the JUCO guys across the D1 landscape are freaking setting the tone. I’m talking to you parents! This isn’t the way when we were playing. JUCO baseball isn’t a step above HS. This is the new path. JUCO kids are ready NOW! Hype Train!
Wanna find a way to be off the team… let yourself be caught doing things like this on social media. Why in the heck would you think this is a smart idea? You are a part of the
#1
ranked team in America…
Never recruited a player who told me his dream was to play at San Jac. But I got a whole roster full of players Who did Commit to their “dream” school before their junior year in high school. 🤷🏻♂️
10 years ago... “your son has several brain abnormalities and the likelihood of him ever leaving the ICU is very slim. Making it to 10 years old would be a miracle in of its own.” Well look at him now! Happy birthday Keaton Jax Koehler.
It took a very long time and effort to get approval for this. Keaton finally got his own bike! Wanna know what the world would look like without hatred and prejudice? Watch a child with special needs live life on his new bike with his PaPaw. That’s my boy!
🤦🏻♂️ When you walk up to a dugout to ask for a roster and ask the coach what one or two guys you should bear down on and he circles 9 guys and says “these guys are great JUCO Guys”. Man, people don’t get it
Another day, another surgery for little man. This time, he is having corrective eye surgery to repaired his severe near sightedness. Similar to Lasic We are excited for Keaton yo finally see the world as we do! Let’s Get It Keaton Jax! 🙏🏻 God Is Good
Just a heads up fellas… if you write me a long DM telling me how much you would love to play in our program and how much respect you have for what we do etc… please make sure that you know I coach at San Jacinto College, not that other place you mentioned. 🤷🏻♂️🙄🤦🏻
Why is the broadcaster saying “DBU is quietly putting together a major program.” Yet pointing out they’ve won 40+ games in the last seven straight seasons (excluding COVID year). That’s not quiet! That’s very LOUD! Huge props to
@DBU_Baseball
Huge shoutout to the first Insurance Company, car dealership and broker that gives a young Volunteer Coach NIL deals that give him coverage, a car that is dependable and a salary to support his young family. The players he volunteers to coach are now much better off than him
It’s an absolute honor to have been by your side for all 900 of these W’s. Always crediting your players and coaches and making it all about everyone but TA. But today, today is your day. Congrats Skipper. What a heck of an accomplishment from a true Hall Of Fame Coach.

The fact that any Collegiate Summer League is still playing games on August 16th is mind blowing! 70+ games! 😳 guys moving to campus last week and this week. Someone in those league meetings needs to speak up.
College baseball people Really should stop talking about how disrespectful the Vols were to their opponents and the game. Stop referencing Karma and their horrible antics. College baseball should be talking about how impressive Link Jarrett and his ND Irish are.

13 years ago today, you changed our world. I became a better human because of you. Your mommy and I embrace each challenge & know you were our gift because we prayed to the heavens for you. Our dreams were answered and you continue to be our miracle. Happy Birthday son.
Players and parents: Honest truth here… I have zero Idea how much money I will have available to offer in 2024 class at this point. I can’t, for the life of me, know what I’ll have in 2025 & I’d feel the need to jump off the Ship Channel bridge if I needed to tell an 8th grader
Yeah… maybe you’re not as informed about JUCO baseball as you may think. That’s just the first set of games in the tournament… if you think you’re not a “JUCO” player out of HS, you may very well be right.
PSA for all College Athletes: On the 1st day of class, print your syllabi and save a copy of each of them. That way, if one day you do transfer and a course or two do not transfer in and you have to appeal to a department chair, you don’t need to email someone for their syllabus.
42 Players currently on our roster. Forty-Two! So next time that other coach tells you we have 70+ and we’ll cut you and bring in more, show them this and then ask for their proof. Most importantly, now you can confirm they’ll lie and tell you anything you want to hear! 🚩🚩🚩
2021, a fourth place finish. I couldn’t be more proud. I love this group like very few others. Losing hurts like hell, but pain is temporary when you know you’ve impacted young men in a positive way. I believe we’ve done that. Thank You Parents! We love the men you’ve raised 🐊
I appreciate the 2022 and 2023 parents and players reaching out with video and wanting to be a part of our program. I’ll be honest, I am not returning those DM’s at this time. You’re a Sophomore in HS. Please enjoy those next three years. I’ll get to y’all in the summer...
It is extremely difficult to win at the
@JUCOWorldSeries
in your first trip. Few have done it. It’s a whole new game. Fly balls travel farther, sinkers don’t sink, CB’s are less curved, the game speeds up, the zone is smaller, the LF wall is intimidating and makes a difference…
Players most of the time don’t realize it and go through the motions when doing it, but this play right here is implemented in pretty much every pre-game In&Out. Most of the time, the players don’t even know why they’re doing it.
Want to give a huge shout out to the players of Snead who took a moment after their game to interact with my son. Never know who you’re going to impact as a player here at the

Nothing changes this fact: NC State just had their dreams ripped away from them and that’s heart wrenching for the whole baseball community. The NCAA could send everyone home for 14 days and bring back four healthy teams with a clean slate. They can afford to do that!
Let’s Goooooo!!!! This is going to set the JUCO world on fire! This is just the beginning. No longer that D1 baseball will play events in a venue like TBA. I can’t thank Jeremy enough for partnering with us and allowing me to invite some of the best JC’s to this event! Let’s Ride

#WeGotNow
If the day one lineup were made today, based off of fall performance up to this point, there would be 6 walk-on position players starting for us, two to four other walk-on’s playing/splitting significant innings in the middle infield, OF and catching…
Another thing

fans can look forward to with
@WoodyWilliams19
, he was a Pitcher who Raked. He not only will make their P’s better, but hitters will gravitate toward him for tips. He can grab a bat & still drive Oppo line drives better than the best guy on the roster
I have a feeling there is a pretty significant event announcement that’s about to drop and if you’re a JUCO person or fan thereof, you’re going to freaking love this! Dare I say,
#wegotnow
Players, if your coach has enough belief in you to put his reputation on the line on social media and promote you, you’ve done two things: 1) You’ve earned the ultimate respect 2) you’ve done it the right way. But, most importantly, you’re playing for the right guys/Orgs.

Wife taking me to dinner with the whole family... I’m in adidas shorts, a nice collard shirt and my adidas shoes. She says “Seriously?!!! One night. Just one night without tennis shoes and shorts!” I said “They’re Not tennis shoes! They’re Turfs!”...
Came home and my wife handed me this with that “look” of WOW on her face. This reinforces why I do what I do. I may rub people wrong because I love my guys and I love promoting them. I will do anything on earth for any of them. Love ya

Next crazy rant.. prospective student athletes… I am a college BASEBALL Coach. I do not coach Football or Basketball. We don’t even have those sports at our college. If you’re DM’ing me that you play tailback and DB & you haven’t signed but are interested in our school, WAKE UP!
Driven! No one outworks our man Coach Wheels! I’ve spent the last 10 years with Big D. I have a special relationship w/him. We mess with eachother constantly. I give him heck, he jabs his rebar fingers in my ribs. I love this dude. Our lives were changed when D joined this fam.
Speaking Just for our level, IMO, it’s Sad that I’m today’s game, an “uncommitted” JUCO player feels the need to self promote themselves in search of an opportunity. That’s our job. Unfortunately, some believe it’s egotistical or in bad taste 4 coaches to love our kids enough...
5th ranked team in the country! Just took three of four from the

ranked team. Starting Non-Scholarship players in RF, LF, 1B, 2B, DH. 3 of the 4 starting P in our rotation walked on. Several key pieces in the pen are walk-on’s with significant innings pitched...
Hey Portal Pitchers… you may want to pay close attention to our announcements in the next 24 hours… let’s just say, they wont have any ammunition to use against us anymore! We just crushed their narrative. Stay Tuned! It’s about to get REAL!

Draft Thoughts: Really Really good HS players sliding or going possibly undrafted. P5’s placing heavy emphasis on elite lvl HS players and Portal. Really Really Good HS kids better open their minds to Mid-Majors and JUCO. MLB seems willing to let colleges develop as are P5’s
Freshman INF/P, Sabin Ceballos, showed up in Houston in tremendous shape physically. Has incredibly untapped power potential. Oh... and he holds the all time

infield arm record at 99 across the diamond. Kid is special.
September of 2014, we welcomed Coach Weaver to the Gator Family. I’ve grown tremendously close over time with him and couldn’t ever imagine coaching against him. With that being said, his time has come and coach Weaver has welcomed a new challenge in Brenham, TX.
Two More Sleeps! Unpacking the unis and gear. Can’t wait to get back to practicing with these guys. High expectations. Immensely difficult first month. Wouldn’t want it any other way!

Coach Holliday saying the Hush Hush out loud at the 3:35 mark. The state of the NCAA NIL/Portal system is a freaking mess. The fact that true college baseball purists ever supported this move is mind boggling. Everyone who had skin in the game knew what it would lead too.

@boehm_gage
To all 35 and ^ College Baseball Coaches/people. Imagine being a player in 1995 & being asked to play in the Cape. Now imagine accepting the invite but telling the coach that you’re only available every 5th day & your plan is to leave for a draft party mid summer and not return.
Can’t say enough about the job

From the San Jac Gators to the
@mccbaseball1
Highlanders... Congrats fellas. You earned every bit of that championship. Like I said a few weeks ago, Region 5 May have something to say about Region Supremacy in 2021. Great Job Coach Thompson.
The whole “Coaches can leave programs anytime they wish and are not committed to the players” argument is hogwash for the most part. College baseball Coaches were once players in most cases. They played until their playing days were done. Then the became grad assistants…
