- Get a high school student involve
- Clearly define expectations and what it looks like
- Empower them to get it done
- Identify what you want it to look like (create the vision with width and depth)
- Width = a lot of people
- Depth = its not just about winning (something greater, the “transcendent” student experience

- What are the things I need in my organization?
- What am I good at? What am I not good at?
- Define a clearly defined program for the individual (staff and player)
- Player and personal side of player development (hire a player development)
- Cast, clip, quote
- Look at your resources
- Either worry about your resources or worry about your resourcefulness!
- Are their people on campus that want to help your baseball players?
- Is there a math teacher that would break down metrics? Create a meaningful title
- Do it If there is value to your program and you have a willingness to be told NO!
- Recruited a director of analytics just like a student athlete!!
- Life skills and platform you are teaching through the content
- If you are teaching so you can coach, you are out of wack!!!
- Made us be really focused on the type of recruit that is a fit for us!
- Run it like a business/board meeting - we meet everyday
- Individual staff meetings
- The “unseen” hours - where you make life work
- What are the metrics that we feel leads to winning? (clarify the metrics that are important)
- Core principles
- Primary strategies
- performance indicators
- Physicality wins!
- Ever evolving (finding clarity)
- Clarity is always the goal, but evolution towards clarity is what you are trying to achieve (excellence)
- Its what the game provides!!
