One of the true joys of coaching (and being an ex-coach), is being able to spend time with former players and their families. Of all the accomplishments of a coach, being able to impact players who go on to become great husbands and fathers ranks at the top.

My 18 year old middle son Cal and I were there in leftfield seats near the HR. Road tripped 8 hours up from NC and drove straight back all night to get him to school next morning. Greatest road trip ever!

Unbelievably proud if this former player of mine, not just for being a top AAA player, but for the kind of man he is. MLB will hear from Jeremy Walker again soon.

What a fantastic human being. He was tremendously supportive of me professionally, personally, and spiritually. I will miss him deeply.

Water level finally low enough to wade to one of my favorite fishing rocks in middle of river. Caught 3 different fish- Bass, Sucker (Ugghh), and Catfish. Headed home. I shall return

Heartbroken for the Farley family and the tragic loss of Robert Farley, who I played HS football against back in the day. Prayers for sons Joshua and Caleb, and those who loved him and benefited from his strong faith in God

Privileged to share a message with Maiden High School coaches recently. They're not only winners on the field but also helping their players be better young people off the field. Best wishes to the Blue Devils this year!

So I'm enjoying a few moments in hot tub on our TN vacation when a mom bear and her cub pay me a visit. Hopped out in time to video. Ah, God's creation never ceases to amaze!

I WAS WRONG. I pulled against them b/c I thought they were obnoxious, brash, arrogant. But their enthusiasm comes from living each day for the Lord, being joyful of every opportunity to glorify Him. Please forgive me girls, for judging you unfairly. Keep it up for the Kingdom!

Can't begin to express how proud I am of this former player of mine. Great player, fine person, committed Christian. Parents, when you're picking role models for your sons, choose Chandler seven days a week

My friend Mike Linch was hacked and had to restart his Twitter account. He's definitely worth following- podcast host, pastor, baseball guy, inspirational leader and all around good guy! Check out his page

Conversation w/ St. Louis Cardinals future mlb star Chandler. Me: How you doing? Chandler: My baby boy Walker is doing great, growing every day, my wife is great, too. Me: I'm proud of you- usually when a player is asked how he's doing, he talks about his BB stats
