Advice On Transferring After/ During Freshman Year
A little background information on my recruitment. My senior year in 2018 I committed to a private D3. However, towards the end of my Spring high school season the coach that recruited me stepped down. I reached out to a local D2 university that was previously following me. This school gave me a full ride for academics and the coach expressed interest, so I came here in the fall as a walk on. Do to budget cuts (As the CIAA no longer supports baseball in conference), I was informed that the...

Re: George Mason University Winter Baseball Camps (Youth and High School)
My son has done several of these youth camps and had a great time but I feel the need to point out that there was very little instruction. Most of the coaches are on the college team and all they do is walk around and throw BP.
Reply
Re: George Mason University Winter Baseball Camps (Youth and High School)
Yes, the coaches at these camps are the players and staff from the university. However with that being said, the instruction on the drill or drills take place at the start of each station and then repetition of the drill follows. If there needs to be more instruction during the drill the coach or coaches will explain what needs to be done to try and help improve what they are working on.

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
It'll be a little different for us this year. The D2 university son was at did not renew his scholarship (his grades slipped) so he decided to go back to the junior college and get his AA (he was a few credits shy when he transferred to the 4 year university) before he goes on to different university (that's the plan anyway). So officially he hung up his cleats, but he's listed as a "student assistant" (volunteer coach) for the JuCo. It won't quite be the same, but I'm glad he's keeping his...

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
Not to throw a wet rag on this conversation. This will unfortunately be the first spring I will not get to watch my son play baseball since he was 5. He was recovering from ulnar nerve transposition surgery this past September. Everything was going well until last Monday. He threw his first bullpen from the mound and felt a pop. A MRI confirmed out worst fears, torn UCL. I am sitting in his apartment waiting for tomorrow when the TJ surgery is scheduled. I wish all of your sons a healthy...

Fox, sorry to hear about the re-route. Really great that he is able to jump right in to the coaching gig, though. Keep us in the loop with how that goes. That will provide him with a whole new set of baseball challenges!

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
YG so sorry to hear about that. I feel your pain. We'll all be pulling for a successful process and rehab for him. It is good to hear that HC has been involved. FWIW, when cabbage lost his first college year to surgery, it was a big hurdle to get past the actual procedure. That seemed to trigger a more tangible countdown to recovery. Still, the wait between procedure and first date of therapy was a particularly tough period. Another player who recently had a similar experience found that...

Sorry to read that younggun - hopefully your son can come back. Hard to go cold turkey though! My oldest did the transposition when he was like 14 or 15 and was able to throw/pitch again in HS. While recovering he helped coach my youngest son's minor division team... Funny to seem him throw BP with the other arm... When my youngest was 14 or 15 he had the decompression surgery... Now he's on the shelf again after having labrum repair surgery this past September (90% tear, anterior). He just...

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
Approaching this season with uncertainty. Son is a redshirt senior recovering from shoulder surgery. He just started throwing a few pitches from a mound at half speed, and it's too early to project whether he will pitch this season. We're excited about the team, which surged last year from its perennial spot in the cellar of their conference to a 35-win season and second place finishes in both the regular season and conference tournament. They return a senior-laden team that lost only two...

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
Son is a freshman at a D1. Didn't get to play any IF in the fall....just pitched and DH'd. Had his "meeting" with the pitching coach after the fall and was given some very interesting info....more than we had expected. Depending on how things go when they get back after the holidays, his role could end up being a lot bigger than he had thought for his freshman year. Hopefully he'll get back, have a good month and get the news he's hoping for as the season starts

Swamp, yes, uncertainty for your son but he found his career path and is still in position to enjoy the ride just a while longer one way or another - win, win!!! For my son, I find myself looking back as I look forward. Going into his RS Jr year, he seems to have already had the full breadth of experiences... a lost year to injury, good Falls, a bad Fall, nearly 200 teammates being cut, a year of earning PT, an all-conference year, three "recruiting" phases and three HC's.

Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
Son's team (Wright State) was in the "got votes" category. Reality of mid major D1, gotta win the league tournament. Playing some teams in the same category early for a series (Georgia and NC State) and a mid week game with Louisville. Last year we played several early series with top 10 / 20 teams and did well. Won a game in each series and lead / tied late in all but one of them. It definitely helped the team confidence. Hopefully we can do the same this year. 65 days until "play ball"

Can someone explain the NCAA D1 academic eligibility and probation rules for spring sports. Thanks in advance.
Reply
Re: Spring Baseball - 2016 - College
The NCAA standard for D1 student-athletes to be eligible is based on the school's individual minimum GPA for graduation and how many years of school the athlete has completed. Thus, there is no minimum GPA for a freshman to play in the spring of his first year. A freshman who was a qualifier out of high school only has to meet the NCAA standard of completing 6 credit hours for the fall term to play in the spring. For subsequent years, their cumulative GPA must be at least 90 percent of the...
