Our first live interview of 2019 finds us dialing into Athens, Georgia to connect with University of Georgia head coach Scott Stricklin, a 22-year continuous ABCA member. Stricklin, two-time speaker at the ABCA Convention, jumps on our podcast to walk through his journey as a baseball coach and the lessons he has learned along the way that have helped shape him into the leader that he is today. We also unpack the turnaround happening with the Bulldogs. Being one of the best catching coaches in our game, Stricklin offers insight into his personal growth as a developer behind the plate, some of the various elements that he feels like elite defenders possess while also detailing the importance of communication from his catching corps to the pitching staff and team defense. This show is packed with terrific takeaways, pearls of wisdom from the top coaches in college baseball plus plenty of ‘Certified Audio Gold’ moments – pen and paper are needed for this one!
