Coach Tory and Coach Don preview and record Everything Fast Pitch episode 409 via Zoom, highlighting a listener-driven show and thanking supporters on patreon.com/everythingfastpitch. In the warmup “Did You Know,” they note three Division I undefeated teams at the time of recording—Tennessee, Florida, and Alabama—and discuss SEC strength and ongoing top-team dominance. The city of the week is Huntsville, Alabama, with mention of strong softball in the area, UAH's Division II success, and local universities. Player of the week is Bronwyn Conroy (College of Charleston), recognized as rookie of the week after a standout week including five runs, nine hits, three RBIs, and multiple stolen bases; they share Don's prior familiarity with her and invite more nominations via email. The equipment tip promotes Square Cuts training discs (FastPitchPrep.com), priced at $49.95 per dozen, with YouTube demos and varied uses beyond hitting. A listener question asks how transfers, extra eligibility, and NIL may shift Division I recruiting; they agree programs increasingly prioritize proven portal players while still pursuing elite high school recruits, and discuss pressure to win, scholarship changes, and financial strains on athletic departments. In the leadoff segment, they debate travel ball teams advertising “non-parent coaches,” arguing it doesn't guarantee fairness or quality and that many parent coaches are highly committed, while paid non-parent coaches can still have biases. In the cleanup segment, they address an 8U team rotating players every inning, supporting multi-position development but recommending more consistent innings/roles so players can learn from mistakes. The coaching tip focuses on helping players choose the right bat (length/weight), discouraging gimmicky sizing formulas and knee-jerk changes based on short-term results, and recommending the longest/heaviest bat a player can swing with good bat speed and control, while noting the cost and rapid outgrowing of expensive bats.Support the show

On this episode of the JT Sports Podcast, JT dives headfirst into the SEC vs Big Ten debate, breaking down why the Southeastern Conference still sets the standard in College Football despite recent national title narratives favoring the Big Ten Conference.

MLB draft or college baseball? If your son is a high school player facing this decision, don't wait until draft day to figure it out. Subscribe for weekly baseball career advice. In this episode, 25-year MLB agent Matt Hannaford breaks down exactly how families should navigate the NIL, college baseball, and MLB Draft decision — and why money alone should never drive it. ✅ Why your signing bonus size determines how much opportunity your son actually gets ✅ How college NIL offers work (revenue share vs. NIL deals) and what's negotiable ✅ What a first-year professional contract actually includes — bonus splits, tax strategy, scholarship plans, clawback clauses ✅ The pre-draft mental exercise that prevents families from making emotional, last-minute decisions ✅ How to evaluate your son's emotional maturity for pro ball — and why getting it wrong can end a career The MLB Draft decision is one of the most consequential moments in a young baseball player's life, and most families go into it without the information they need. Matt walks through the full landscape: how scouts evaluate high school players using player comps and projectability, why college programs adjust their offers as draft stock rises, and what the money actually represents from the organization's perspective — not yours. One of the biggest misconceptions is that a signing bonus is just a paycheck. Matt explains how bonus size directly correlates with organizational commitment. A player who signs for $100,000 may find himself playing twice a week at the lowest level, stuck in a Catch-22 where the team won't invest playing time in a low-cost asset. Meanwhile, a player signed for $2 million gets every opportunity to develop. Understanding this dynamic changes how families should evaluate any draft offer. Matt also breaks down the college side: how revenue share agreements differ from NIL marketing deals, why both are negotiable, and what leverage looks like for a player projected to go high in the draft. He covers professional contract specifics most families never learn about until it's too late — the seven-season control period, the college scholarship plan (and how teams try to undercut it), incentive bonus structures that deduct from your scholarship, and clawback provisions that can reclaim your signing bonus if you retire early. Whether your son is a projected first-rounder or a late-round possibility, this episode gives you the framework to make the decision with clarity, not panic. Scroll down to the timestamps to jump straight to the contract breakdown. Matt Hannaford is a Major League Baseball agent with over 25 years of experience representing players from first-round picks to Hall of Famers. He created The Most Valuable Agent Podcast to give baseball families the insider knowledge they need to navigate the business side of the game. #MostValuableAgent #MLBDraft #BaseballNIL  

Longtime NFL scout Jon Cooper joins 365 Sports to break down what he's seeing from this year's draft class and why there's such a noticeable drop off at the quarterback position behind the top prospect. Cooper shares insight on Ty Simpson's development timeline, how NIL is impacting draft decisions for players returning to school, and where Baylor quarterback Sawyer Robertson fits as a potential developmental prospect at the next level. He also discusses standout talents like Reuben Bain, the growing importance of wingspan over arm length in evaluations, and why depth at positions like cornerback and wide receiver could shape how teams approach this year's draft. #nfl #nfldraft #nfc #afc #nflcombine Learn more about your ad choices.

Can Whittingham's proven power football philosophy, elite quarterback talent in Bryce Underwood, and veteran staff lead the Wolverines to immediate national contention?

Special attention is given to “second-year surge” potential for Virginia Tech and Kansas State, the uncertainties surrounding Pat Fitzgerald at Michigan State, and the crucial role of NIL and booster support in modern coaching success.

Beau is from Blue Springs, Missouri. He joined the Hawkeyes in the class of 2021 and became a massive contributor/starter for the Hawks over his final 3 seasons. On this episode Beau reacts to teammate Logan Jones calling him a “psychopath,” explaining his intense playing style and love of run-game dominance. He details how the offensive line senses opponents breaking, why the slow mesh didn't fit Iowa's identity, and what it was like blocking for QB Mark Gronowski, whose running ability changed the offense despite injury concerns. Bo reflects on moving from Iowa's “dark years” to a Joe Moore Award-winning unit, crediting Coach Barnett's culture rebuild, “person before player” emphasis, and Logan Jones' leadership growth. He also covers NIL/revenue share benefits (including buying a house with his fiancée), camp routines and weigh-in/weight-loss stories, recruiting to Iowa because of its values, and his excitement for the NFL Combine with a goal of bringing “Iowa football” professionalism to the league.

Men's Basketball vs Purdue Starts at 0:51 The Duke game was annoying and non-impactful so let's start with Purdue. Purdue comes out to a 5-0 start, Michigan then goes on a 42-17 run. Mackey exploded no matter what, even when Michigan was up 16. Matt Painter is a dude who respects ball. Mara foreshadowed the Duke game by getting into foul trouble, but that wasn't until the 2nd half, otherwise he had a great 1st half. The other subplot of this game was they shot 57% from three, and almost all of them were good shots. Trey Kauffmann-Renn went off for Purdue, historically May has let him go defensively though. Michigan is doing a great job of making the non-contestable guys contestable. What was funnier, the Fletcher Loyer heat-check airball or Cadeau getting to the free throw line and not knowing what to do?  2. Men's Basketball vs Duke Starts at 22:55 A very frustrating game. Mara picks up three first half fouls, the first two of which were not fouls. Playing three bigs in the second half felt like an impulse. Will Tschetter has been a faithful companion for this program but this wasn't the game for him. Duke went on their end of first half run when Michigan had their small lineup out there. Dusty is usually very calm but he was on the verge of eruption. The official in this game notoriously call more calls than anyone else and didn't give us a proper Michigan Duke game. You can just give the coach an iPad to decide if you want to challenge calls?? Does Mara need a little more self-confidence? His body language is telling. Michigan didn't get a lot out of guard play. Their quality of looks in this game were nowhere near their looks in the Purdue game. They got out of balance with their lineup changes and shot 24% from three but still only lost by five to Duke so this really isn't that concerning. What was that travel call? LJ Cason is definitely a contested shot guy. Michigan's biggest win over the weekend was UCLA over Illinois. The Minnesota game is for a share of the title, two Big Ten wins means an outright title. Brian still can't believe how good Keaton Wagler is.  3. Hot Takes and Hockey vs Wisconsin Starts at 55:40 Takes hotter than yours truly after Mara's second foul against Duke. Michigan gets a split out of Wisconsin which ends any hope of catching Michigan State in the Big Ten standings. Wisconsin played their backup goalie and Michigan didn't do enough to threaten him. Kason Muscutt got his first goal. BTN+ has announcers that don't even know Michigan's roster. Michigan could get to 51 points after next week which would win the Big Ten in most years. They have a 99.6% chance of being a #1 seed, they would need to win the Big Ten Tournament to get the #1 overall. #2 overall could get Saint Thomas?  4. Potpourri Starts at 1:24:57 Hughe's got it better than us? Michigan shouldn't claim Jack Hughes. Great performances from Michigan hockey players in the Olympics and the gold medal game. Michigan doesn't have these guys on this team (Michigan State doesn't either, though). Canada was sad and then got handed a stuffed stoat. If you haven't seen the figure skating exhibition gala, you should. Michigan has a new general manager. Sean Magee sent Savion Hiter the wrong dollar amount for his NIL?? The new GM is Dave Peloquin who used to work at Notre Dame. Michigan baseball got another ranked win over Louisville. The vibes for Michigan softball aren't good right now. They're like Nebraska football.  MUSIC: "UFOs"—Phoenix and Alan Braxe "Evil Twin"—Cut Worms "Dug"—Dream Sitch, Michael Nau, Floating Action “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra

The Tennessee Volunteers face a seismic shift as a judge rules against Joey Aguilar, leaving the quarterback spot wide open. Can true freshman Faizon Brandon rise to the challenge and ignite the Vols' offense despite his youth?

The U.S. Supreme Court strikes down a swath of Donald Trump's tariffs and Nil speaks with a VP from the family toy company behind the winning case -- who tells us what it's like to be insulted by the president. Joss Reimer will be Canada's next Chief Public Health Officer. We'll ask her what's at the top of her to-do list -- and what keeps her up at night. For decades, the United States' relationship with Cuba has been fraught, at best. Now, long-time observers say it's time to start calling American measures what they are: a blockade. He says a Toronto hospital changed his life by treating his mental health condition -- and now, he's hoping his $10-million donation to that facility will change other patients' lives too. A paleontologist sets off for the Sahara Desert with nothing but an old monograph of an ancient tooth and unearths something truly ferocious, with an appropriately ferocious nickname. Two Michigan men break a record that was exciting to them -- and annoying to everyone in their general vicinity -- by playing pickleball for 28 straight hours.

Alabama Athletics is bringing in $147 million in operating revenue and spending $82 million—yet the Tide still feels behind in NIL compared to programs like Texas, Ohio State, Texas A&M, LSU, and Texas Tech. In this episode, we break down the numbers, the priorities, and why some fans believe Greg Byrne must make tough decisions before Alabama loses its edge in college football. We dig into where the money comes from—ticket sales ($42M), contributions ($53M), media rights ($28M), postseason ($13M)—and where it goes—head coach ($11M), assistants ($14M+), support staff ($7M), facilities ($7.5M), game expenses ($7.5M+), recruiting ($4M+). Then we get into the biggest debate: Title IX in a new era of NIL and potential revenue-sharing, including the idea of Alabama having $20.5 million to “play with” under a new model. The conversation gets heated when we look at the losses across non-revenue sports—women's basketball (nearly -$5M), gymnastics (-$2M+), baseball (-$4.4M+), plus eye-opening spending gaps like women's rowing and women's track & field. One side argues these sports must become more financially responsible; the other side warns the real issue is simple: if Alabama won't spend at a championship NIL level, Bama risks falling behind. One host puts a number on it: to truly compete with the top spenders, Alabama may need $50M roster-level investment—or the Tide won't be able to retain elite talent and keep winning titles. Do you think Alabama is spending enough to win championships in the NIL era? Drop your take in the comments.
