Why is baseball the greatest sport?
Because the best team doesn’t always win. You have to be prepared, tough, and have the ability to execute. You can’t just show up.
Need evidence? These NCAA Regionals prove it.

- These next 4 weeks could define your next 6 months. Are you going to throw away 5 months of hard work and become a back up? OR Are you going stay locked in at the goals at hand and come in to January as the best version of yourself? It’s a choice.
- My season ended 48 hours ago. Last night I thanked my wife for allowing me the endless hours it took to run the program this year. She was grateful for my gratitude but also understood the sacrifice it takes. The lesson learned: I married a baseball angel. @MelissaStawski
- For all you seniors out there that have to make the decision to put your “real life” on hold and go back to school & athletics for one more year, spending the extra time and money... Whichever decision you make: 1. Be 100% all in on it 2. Never regret it 3. Be at peace with it
- No shave November? 100 likes and I won’t shave. I’ll post a pic on November 30th. If you want me to look like a lumberjack...
- My freshmen come to campus in a week. My upperclassmen come back a few days later. The whole team will be back together in 10 days. To say I’m excited would be an understatement! The summer is great but the best part of my job comes back in 10 days. Can’t wait.
- Commitment is staying true to what you said you would do, long after the mood you said it in, has left. @inkyjohnson
- I was asked by a high school coach yesterday for my “best piece of advice”. I said: It’s simple..let your guys have fun when they play baseball.
- For all those that said @CruFootball did not deserve to be playing in the first round of the NCAA playoffs…you were probably right! They should have gotten a bye. Onto the elite 8. 🤫 #WinnersWin
- Most baseball seasons do not end the way you want them too. But no one can argue with what our players accomplished this year. I’m eternally grateful and proud of this group. #winnerswin
- I once said “I’d rather lose with the RIGHT players” Making that decision has now allowed me the chance to win with those RIGHT players. Funny how that works. #winnerswin 🤫
