What College Coaches Really Look For in Today’s Baseball Recruits

Описание: Recruiting isn't just about showcases anymore—it's about daily habits. In this episode of Coaches Corner, University of Hawaii Assistant Coach Jordan Twohig reveals the WO/BO (Work On / Build On) journaling method that every 8th-10th grader should start today.

Coach Twohig also explains why Hawaii is aggressively recruiting international players (and what that means for US high schoolers), why Game IQ is becoming more valuable than exit velocity, and how to survive the 5,000-mile recruiting trip to play in paradise.

If you want a concrete plan for development, not just recruiting hype, this is it.
