10-80-10 rule:
10% of people are elite workers, leaders, and will strive to be better. Making people around them better.
80% of people will do what is asked, and no more. They will follow.
10% of people will resist, do the least, and hurt the environment.
What group are you?

I wonder the success rate on college baseball players, who have their parents bring them water/food during their high school games.

During a game I can only coach mental approach.
Physical adjustments can only be fixed during practice.
So rather than yelling at my players for physical mistakes, I spend my time motivating them, leading the energy, reminding them of mental cues, and enjoying the game!

If you move out of the way of pitches below 83mph, you shouldn’t be able to wear an elbow guard.

How to tell a team is ELITE in warm-ups:
🔘Play position specific catch with a purpose
🔘Stretch is meaningful
🔘Players energy is positive
🔘Players are actively involved with game in dugout
🔘Dugout chatter is not results based, and constant
🔘Hitters time up pitchers

Leaders eat last
After his coaches tore chairs up and kicked trash cans over, University of Houston’s Jamal Shead stopped and picked up the trash after an emotional loss to Alabama Saturday night in Tuscaloosa.
I’m a huge fan of this young man!

Want to get stronger? Lift to failure.
Want to run for longer? Run until you can’t.
Want to become more intelligent? Learn something new.
Want to learn how to get up? Get knocked down.
Want to be a winner? Learn to lose.
Want to get comfortable? Learn to be uncomfortable.

The most important aspect of recruiting:
Relationships.
Faculties, uniforms, and “nice things” falter in comparison to being authentic and caring about your guys.

Big time talent and positive energy from a bunch of guys looking to get better!
1st pitch was 94mph+ and 1st hit was 102mph off the bat.

My thoughts on today:
There are elite players and teams in WV. I saw 4 pitchers hit 80mph (top 86mph), multiple extra base hits, and big time defensive plays. Additionally, the baseball cultures of the 3 teams I saw are incredible! WV baseball is on the rise!

Mental conditioning today was all about habits.
Baseball is 90% mental, we value developing the character skills and perspective necessary to be elite.
Don’t talk about it, be about it.

-First 6 batters for the Astros in game 5, did NOT have a swing and miss.
-The Astros had the least amount of K’s in the MLB this season.
-Houston is tied for 1st in the MLB with the most extra base hits.
Stop the narrative that homers/2B’s = K’s

Tomorrow In my math classes I'm starting a unit on life skills. First lesson is on character.
The student's will take their character, habits, and relationships with them after they graduate, probably not the math I teach.
I believe this will make a positive impact

There are two ways to stand out:
Focus on yourself or focus on others
🔘Pick up teammates or ignore them
🔘Run everywhere or walk
🔘Warm up a teammate or sit and pout
🔘Add value or subtract it
Choose to stand by adding value

When I see coaches lose their cool or get really angry, I wonder what the coach would do if one of their players did the same thing.
How can a coach hold a player accountable for their actions, if they can’t control their own?
Control the controllables.

And most importantly
Bragging rights!

When I played” is a toxic phrase in coaching. If all your instruction is based on personal success, your neglecting other processes, data, and successes from other sources.
Just because info wasn’t available when YOU played, doesn’t mean it isn’t valid.

Wake up 1 minute earlier, one more repetition, say hello to one more person, make one more positive comment, read for 5 more minutes.
These are all achievable, measurable goals.
Saying you’re going to work out more, read more, or be nicer, those goals are not achievable.

You can see how “bought in” a player is based on how hard they run to first when they should be out.

Average is a choice. Greatness is a choice. There is no magic. Only decisions. Great teams behave like great teams. Their behaviors precede their success. Their behaviors create their belief.
Behaviors are not only what we do, but what we are willing to not do.

The energy you give is the energy you will receive.
Good things don’t always happen because you deserve it or you worked hard. Sometimes adversity is all you get.
Nothing good will come from feeling bad for yourself or letting negativity emotions dictate your actions.

Before you dream about the view from the summit, ask yourself if you're willing to keep your head down, focus on the path, and spend your life walking up the side of a very big hill.
It takes years of walking to earn a minute at the top.
Have an elite day!

“Ain’t no free lunch!”
There is a price to pay for anything worthwhile. In this world, you get nothing of value for free.
If you want to be a great athlete, a great student, a great friend, a great lover, there is an investment that must be made.

Sometimes there are small things that help you reflect on where you’ve been, where you’re at, and where you’re going. While visiting Appalachian Power Park today they subtly (without my knowledge ahead of time) threw the PBR West Virginia logo up on the video the board. (1/2)
