Notes

• The great coaches take failures from the jungle (games) and breakdown them in the zoo (practice)

• HS doesn’t have “relief” pitchers, its next best guy!

• You are playing the worst sport in the world to FEEL GOOD!

• Jungle right away in practice!!

• Learn how to take in the cage

• When you ball strike you are out of the cage

• 6 pitches, no more than 4 swings

• 3 levers in training - intensity, complexity, and velocity

• Transactional versus transformational coaching made a big change in our program

• Questioning! 

• The game doesn’t give you the answers. Create problem solvers

• 10 question reflective quiz to help individualize and develop questions

• The team that is the most vulnerable “the most real” are the best teams

• Heavy, medium, easy days of throwing

• Coach hard, love your guys, 

• What does it take to win, and back map from there

• Have a voice recorder, and take your thoughts in there and analyze them at the end of the night.
