I was reminded how important your inner circle is! Keep the people close that know you, respect you, trust you! Bad people have selfish motives! Protect your inner circle! ❤️ @CoachKurtHines @CoachBrydon @ExtraInningSB @LSCSN @Rickyprep #Innercircle

I want “Success” bad! Bad enough to get up early & stay late? Bad enough to be coached hard? Bad enough to be held accountable? Bad enough to be uncomfortable & surround yourself with high-level teammates that push you to the edge of greatness? How bad do YOU want Success?

PSA consider everything before YOU commit: degree, academics, coaches: do they make a difference beyond the field, history, culture, traditions, is it a good FIT for you! Do not get stuck on conference, name of school: reputation and fit matter! After you commit? Be committed!
