Just thought I’d put @NIU_Baseball pitching game goals out here. I also put together a bunch of data from every team during the 2020 D1 season. Thanks to @643charts for info!

Head Baseball Coach at Cleary University
- Thank you everyone for reaching out since I’ve become the head baseball coach at Cleary University! I’m in disbelief that this is my office. I’m looking for a few more players for the fall and excited about developing the guys we have @JucoUncommitted @jucoroute @PBRMIScout
- What a bunch of cowards. Everyone is playing already and all other divisions are out recruiting. I feel for 2021 grads and JC guys. Keep your head up and working hard. We’ll be out to see you next spring. Lmk if I can help with anything.DI Council extends recruiting dead period: on.ncaa.com/7hx3v
- It gets real easy to get negative about what we don’t have and how things aren’t going our way. I need to improve myself. Then sometimes there are reminders about how special each moment is. After some rain at the field today, we had a double rainbow 🌈🌈
- When you love pitching, but also need a Christmas tree @jaegersports I did some internal/external rotation after I got home.
- Congratulations to all my friends who are D2 coaches. I’m glad you were able to get the vaccine and are safe!Division II to resume normal recruiting calendars Sept. 1: on.ncaa.com/g426e
- Not sure why it hit me after an 8 hour day working with 4 different pitching groups on a cool day, but I’m so thankful for all of our players, other coaches and administrators involved with @NIU_Baseball. Such a fun group to work with each day. All the hard work is worth it!
- D1 coaches...I urge you to call, text, email. Do whatever it takes to find out what’s being done to be safe recruiting by D2, D3, NAIA and JC coaches! It must be when parents break social distance rules to let you know their son normally throws 90, not the 81 he’s throwing today.DI Council extends recruiting dead period for all sports through April 15: on.ncaa.com/qewar
- I feel for all the 2021 Grad and Junior College student athletes who aspire to be D1 athletes. I’m not sure why you’re being singled out, but keep grinding. Being recruited by video and not meeting with coaches in person is a huge disservice to you!Division I Council extends recruiting dead period through May 31: on.ncaa.com/6fxaa
- Not too bad of an office this weekend. What a great opportunity each day with this team! Go Huskies!
00:00 - Got our 3rd D1 transfer in the last month today! I’m excited to add to the core returning. We can’t wait to get started with this group!
GIF - Heard something I always knew today, but never completely grasped. Rules without relationship equals rebellion. My number one goal before anything else is for my players to know I care about them and am here for them! If you can’t do step 1 well, step 2-10 are irrelevant.
- Wow, what a first game (exhibition) today with @ClearyBaseball! Pitchers combined for 9 innings of no-hit/3 walk baseball. The offense was opportunistic from the start and scored each inning. Soaked up a great day as the head coach of this fun group!
