Lucky Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 Who do you believe is the best hitting coach & pitching coach in SETX ?
Lucky Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 OK I'll start.......Sam Moore( hitting & pitching)...........I also like Jeremy Green who played for Sam.
MIF04 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Posted December 27, 2006 First, there are a lot of good people in the area but IMO:Matt Thompson (hitting and pitching) David Huggins (pitching) JR Bardin (hitting and catching) Blake Justice (infield)Most of the D1 kids the last couple of years have gone through these guys; therefore, their results do speak for themselves.
Lucky Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 You gotta have alot more going for you than a good instructor to go D1........It's called "SKILLS" and I'll take your word that these instructors are good.........But that aint' why these kids are playing D1 ball !
Lucky Posted December 27, 2006 Author Report Posted December 27, 2006 Chris Fackler also knows alot, I think he's at McNeese now.
MIF04 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 You gotta have alot more going for you than a good instructor to go D1........It's called "SKILLS" and I'll take your word that these instructors are good.........But that aint' why these kids are playing D1 ball !I think you sell instructors/coaches short. Granted, a lot of kids have 'SKILLS' but developing those into the tools that translate at the D1 level is another matter. I think you gotta have both...
adminbaberuth Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 I think you sell instructors/coaches short. Granted, a lot of kids have 'SKILLS' but developing those into the tools that translate at the D1 level is another matter. I think you gotta have both...Here's how I make a decision. Say I had some money to invest ie. $100,000, and I had two referrals of investment people. Instead of choosing one, I split 50k to each, then after 1 year that will tell me who's the most qualified.So if I was looking to improve my baseball skills, what's wrong with using both? The best results I had achieved would lead me to stay with that one.
bears09 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 Lucky,I think if you ask Jeremy Green who his hitting coach was in high school he will tell you Coah Griff. Just a guess though.
Lucky Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Posted December 28, 2006 I'll ask him. I do know he learned alot from Sam. Sam coached with Griff at LCM when Jeremy played.
Lucky Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Posted December 28, 2006 I know that Sam and Jeremy are on the same page with their hitting lessons and coach Griff wants his hitters doing something a little different.
Lucky Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Posted December 28, 2006 I also would not question what Griff teaches, his winning record speaks for itself.
Lucky Posted December 28, 2006 Author Report Posted December 28, 2006 I think you sell instructors/coaches short. Granted, a lot of kids have 'SKILLS' but developing those into the tools that translate at the D1 level is another matter. I think you gotta have both...I'm not selling them short at all. I know kids who have made incredible progress from taking private lessons and yes, even gone on to play college ball. I have two kids who take lessons as well so I believe in it. There is no question that a good coach or instructor can improve ones skills. But in my opinion, If you get to the D1 level.............You need to thank GOD first, then you can thank the coach, cause thats where little Johnny got that arm that throws 90mph plus.....Yea, coach Bubba showed him a nasty slider but without that arm, he aint' going D1.
adminbaberuth Posted December 28, 2006 Report Posted December 28, 2006 I wouldn't count the Bears out of any chance for the playoffs. I've seen Griff go 3 rounds deep with pitching that didn't have room on that van after the season ended.
strongD Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Jeremy Green and Sam Moore have two totally different styles of teaching.
marty Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 sam moore is a great coach. He cares about his kids, and works to get them to the next level. his website is zonebaseball.org
Lucky Posted December 30, 2006 Author Report Posted December 30, 2006 Jeremy Green and Sam Moore have two totally different styles of teaching. They are teaching the same mechanics of how to hit a baseball. Some of their drills may vary and the way they relate to kids may be different but the method they teach is the same.

pngbbfan Posted January 1, 2007 Report Posted January 1, 2007 For pitching, I would go with Sam Moore. Hands down. Lots of experience, and his program is awesome.

bignasty69 Posted January 4, 2007 Report Posted January 4, 2007 Best hitting coach in the area by far is chad bunting
meat Posted January 5, 2007 Report Posted January 5, 2007 High school hitting coach...probably Chad Landry or Coach GriffHigh school pitching coach...hard to go against Cody Robbins or Kyle GreenOthers:Hitting: Chris Fackler...results speak for themselves. He learned a lot from Pujols and Kelly Shoppack.Pitching: Brian Sanches (Yes, technically not a coach but does lessons). Sam Moore is a good one.
VPbaseball06 Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 Jeremy Green is what made me successful against the best pitchers in the area last year and helped me get my scholarship to LSU-shreveport. I didn't take lessons from anyone else. but the results for me speak for themselves.
meat Posted January 6, 2007 Report Posted January 6, 2007 J. Green used to run that indoor-facility with Chris Fackler...He learned a lot
swingbuilder Posted January 9, 2007 Report Posted January 9, 2007 The best would be the guys at www.hittingillustrated.com
