Big week! 2009 commits.

TJ Martin Bishop Lynch SS- U.T. Tyler

I can honestly say I haven't met a young man with better manners and a better glove. It is amazing to watch this young man in the field. I am very proud of you, TJ. Congrats to both you and mom and dad! I am sure many trips east are going to be on their schedule soon.

Coach A.

Dallas Christian's Corey Brooks has decided to play baseball at Pepperdine. Poor kid will have to find a way to survive in Malibu, CA.

Congrats to him and his family. What a pleasure to watch him all these years and to know his family.

And those unattractive girls...what a shame!

Congrats to Corey!

awesome job Corey.. You will love it there since you love to swim....

Word on the street is that the recruit and head coach were dining during the visit and the recruit asked about Pepperdines #1 baseball fan, Ms. Pamela Anderson Lee.

Coach presses #2 on the speed dial (#1 Being Mrs. Head Coach) and Ms. Lee answers the phone and then takes a few minutes to expresses her views on the ballclub and university and the young lad verbals on the spot...

agsnhere -- if that story isn't urban myth -- it certainly has the potential to become urban legend. Awesome!

Here is an article titled, "With her help, Pepperdine program is in great shape"

Congrats to TJ and his whole family. Great young man, great glove, and the bat is now awesome as well. UT Tyler is getting the real deal!

She brings a couple of recruiting tools most programs don't have...

Her 2 kids?

Congrats to TJ Martin. It was a priveledge to watch him this fall. What a compliment to be known as much for his character as he is a complete baseball player - I know Coach Vilade is excited about getting a quality person and ball player.

Way to go TJ!!

Congratulations to TJ.

Any word on where Jordan Hebert will be going?

Pic of a few of McKinney Boyd Stars signing on to the next level. Congrats boys!

(L to R) Jacob Coffey-Navy, Will Fletcher-North Central Texas College, Randy Mann-North Central Texas College, Ryan Parker-Austin College

It's a myth on Corey, but a fun one.

Hebert has an offer but has decided to wait. I was there when it happened and talked with Jerry. I will let them share what they will do and who it was with.

WOOO TULANE GREEN WAVE!!! Congrats Shorty and the whole family!!! Im sure his Dad is cooking some chicken right about now!

Matty the Goldbergs are soooooo happy for you!

Tulane is getting an awesome catcher ....

Dad will have to whip up some rockets!

I should add that I had throwing partner for the last three years of my high school career-Matt Shortall. Matty plays with the true love of the game on his face at all times, and often helped me get over days of frustration or weakness. I've told him many times, but I'll say it again: it was an honor and privilege to have played with that "kid."
