Couldn’t agree more @DustinLMcComas !! Thanks for sharing!
Labeled Byrd a 'Pick to Click' after @RecruitMETx Opening Weekend. Think this 2026 RHP has so much positive development ahead. Going to be big, throw hard and have makings of deep arsenal. Profile:

Strong words from Cam Ward “I grew up watching my Dad wake up at 4:30 for a job he didnt like, so if I can’t wake up early and work hard at a job I do like, I shouldn’t be playing Football”

There are hundreds more options aside from of D1-D3 from NJCAA to NAIA that have incredibly high level athletes at all positions. Last year at my NJCAA, we had right handed pitchers 92-95 and lefties 87-91 and we finished 2 wins short of the CWS. Talent runs deep.

August 1st ( 2027) - D1’s can now call. - If the phone rings, it means you’re on a board. - If it doesn’t? You’re not behind. Recruiting is changing. Focus less on who’s calling. More on: ✅ Is the velo or EV or 60 there to earn that call? ✅ are you game tested?
