As a kid I cheered for the @nyknicks bc of John Starks. Over the last 2 years I have grown fond of Jalen Brunson. He is truly remarkable to watch. Congrats to him. I am officially crowning @ATLHawks the 2nd best team in NBA since they were only ones to beat them twice!

Man this Knicks bunch is insane. Spurs definitely assisted in choking that game away but glad to see that the Dude that has been the unsung hero for them the whole postseason had his game and his moment. OG is that Dude!

1st Bus Ride of the year in the books at LMU and several guys performed well but the one who stood out the most and takes home the first CC award of the Summer is Julian Gutierrez. Check out video of him getting robbed of extra bases on 1st Swing of the day.

Im telling you right now if you are a High School player, an @MLB Scout, GM, or Cross-checker you absolutely need to check out this episode. One of the finest young men I have ever had the chance to talk to in my lifetime spent in the game of Baseball.
One of the top high school pitchers in the country. Team USA champion. State champion. Potential MLB Draft pick. Matthew Sharman joins Elevate2Great for Episode 6 to share his journey, mindset, and love for the game. 🎙️ Drops June 15. #Elevate2Great #MatthewSharman #MLBDraft

Charlie Culberson was told if he didn't win a position battle in High-A, he might be converted to a pitcher. His response? Get to work. One of the biggest lessons in sports & life: setbacks don't define you—how you respond does. #Elevate2Great #Baseball #Mindset #Leadership

This is Baseball and if this weekend has showed you anything it is that in the game of Baseball there are no Cake Walks. In FB and Basketball you can out size and out athlete people. In Baseball the game doesn’t care about any of that. Don’t disagree with you on re-racking though
We really need re-seeding. 1 & 2 are both out. UGA who is 3 gets probably one of the toughest super regionals, while your 7 seeds get absolute cakewalks lol.

Those phase 1 guys have deals done before they ever hit the portal. Thats why many enter as Do not Contact.
The Transfer Portal isn’t fair. It’s a pecking order. Just like free agency or the MLB Draft: The best guys go first. The money dries up fast. And some players never find a home. I recruited D1 baseball. I recruited the portal. I made mistakes, got some right, and missed on some too. Here’s how I see it: Phase 1: A players Impact guys. Clear upgrades. Real money. Programs move fast. Phase 2: B players Experienced, solid college players. Still scholarship-level, but more lateral moves. Phase 3: C players Low scholarship. Maybe a roster spot. Typically lower conference or dropping a level. Fit has to be specific. Phase 4: D players This is where it gets hard. A lot don’t find another home. Not because they’re bad kids, but because they misread the market. The portal is not one big group with equal opportunity. If you enter without knowing where you realistically fit, you can get exposed fast and get frustrated. For most portal entrants, it’s a giant leap of faith. Just trying to give you my perspective on it. Good luck to all... players and coaches. It'll be a crazy next 60 days. @NCAA

The 2026 Regionals are another example of why Baseball is the greatest Sport of all. At a time where the Big Boys have all the means 2 tip the scales in their favor NIL/Portal the game itself ensures the playing field always stays level. Any team, Any day, Any time can rise 2 top

Before the MLB career, Charlie Culberson was spending every day at the batting cages with pockets full of tokens chasing reps. ⚾ The love for the game started long before the spotlight. Episode 5 of Elevate2Great drops June 1. 🎙️ #Elevate2Great

We have a long trek back home but a chance to make a memory she will remember forever is more than worth the detour. @NCAAWCWS #B3Softball

That last line doesn’t even do him justice. If you want to see what I am talking about check out our @Elevate2GreatHQ Podcast episode with him dropping 2 weeks from Friday!
It’s rare when you get this type of player to come through the program. Some key career numbers for ‘26 RHP Matthew Sharman. 248.1 IP 36-3 Record 1.31 ERA 36 BB 380 K 68% Strikes ‼️ 💍💍 Highest-level makeup for the @BaseballUGA commit. @EtowahBaseball || @MatthewSharman9

I would personally be shocked if the Flames were not at UNC. The committee likes doing things like that.
Liberty will be going to one of these host cities. Let’s hope for something relatively close by like UNC or WVU. The UNC regional would have a great story line with Liberty vs their ex-coach.

This could be a good sign for @Ben_Upton5 & @D_Kourtis27 ‘s Mercer Bears.
No big surprises here. We wound up debating Mississippi State vs. Arkansas last night and thought the Hogs had a better case, with a head-to-head series win vs. MSU, and an 18-12 Q1 record (compared with MSU's 9-14). But the committee seemed to value RPI more (MSU 12, Ark 21).

Deserving MVP and great interview from him after the 1st walk-off. Great example of a guy staying ready for when his opportunity came. Only 12 hits on the year coming in to the tournament & the 3 biggest for his team on the week.

After broadcasting the @ConferenceUSA Tournament & watching @JaxStateBB I can say w/confidence Bieser’s crew has the ability to win a regional if their top arms who all have elite stuff command the zone. Can score in many different ways & he has Feel for pushing right buttons

Truly a blast being on the call for 10 games over the last 4 days for @ConferenceUSA . Our Crew at KSU is one of a kid. Big thanks to @NolanRAlexander for giving me the chance as a Broadcaster when I stepped off the field Coaching 5 years ago!
The ball wasn’t the only thing flying this week! So many @KSUOwlNation units worked long hrs for the @ConferenceUSA tournament, and I couldn’t be more proud of the @KSUOwlNetwork! They were locked in (literally) all week and wrapped in the wee morning hours ☔️😅 #yOURstory

You obviously were not paying attention to the ASUN in 2022 when Liberty was still in the League. Lol
If you think college football is broken, Liberty and Louisiana Tech played a POSTSEASON game today that was completely meaningless. Craziest conference tournament format ever
