Thank you Tennessee Baseball: A Thread 🧵
Coach Vitello taught us all that we get to define what success looks like. As my playing days have come to a close, I want to share with you a few of the reasons why I believe Tennessee Baseball is successful, and issue some thank you’s.

High school players: I challenge you to place your development as a man, a teammate, and a leader before any other motivations when choosing your school. No staff that will challenge you to do that more than this one. Winning baseball games is simply a product of that work.

Coach A - Your wisdom and competitive drive are the backbone of this program. In a world of players who think they need a pitching lab for a quick fix, you use simple methods to breed winners with a killer mindset on the mound.

Coach V - You visualized what you wanted this program to be, and you bring that to life every day. You are a motivator with contagious energy and a knack for getting the right people in the building. I will build something of my own one day using your blueprint.

Coach E - No one prepares like you do. Your neutral mindset and unwavering belief in your players amidst the heat of competition allows them to trust their own preparation. You are a leader who makes others confident. I will strive to work like you do for the rest of my life

Coach Q - I came to Tennessee with discipline instilled in me by my Dad, and it was only sharpened by spending every day in the weight room with you. It was through being challenged day in and day out by you that we learned just how much we were capable of as a group.

Think you can tackle @jacobpierce__12 at the goal line? Think again. Here's the first TD of @Veterans_High's 49-21 win over Bleckley County tonight. The Warhawks are now 2-0 and have outscored their opponents 80-21 in their first two games of 2018.
