@3leftsbaseball This needs to be posted in every HS dugout

The Sound of a Losing Culture. I hear it in the dugout during games. A player strikes out looking on a borderline pitch. He walks back to the bench tosses his bat and starts the script: "Blue has a flight to catch," or "The sun was right in my eyes." The coach nods just to stop the noise. The teammates shrug because they do it too. But the standard of the program just dropped another inch. You think you’re just "venting." Everyone else sees a player who is too soft to own his failure. The 3 Lefts Mental Audit: • The Excuse Subsidy: Every time you blame the umpire, the sun, or the mound you are paying a tax on your own development. If it’s someone else’s fault you don't have to fix anything. And if you don't fix anything you stay exactly where you are Average. • The "Main Character" Delusion: The sun is hitting the pitcher’s eyes too. The umpire is missing calls for both sides. The game isn't out to get you it just doesn't care about you. Stop acting like the world is conspiring against your batting average. • The Respect Gap: You want your teammates to trust you in the 7th inning. Then stop acting like a victim in the 2nd. Real leaders don't look for someone to blame they look for a way to adjust. The game doesn't reward the player with the best reason It rewards the player who makes the most adjustments. If you want to be treated like an elite ballplayer, start acting like one when things go wrong. High-level players don't have bad luck they have short memories and a plan for the next pitch. Average players want the world to be fair. Ballplayers realize the dirt is dirty and they keep digging anyway. Stop auditioning for the victim role. Nobody is buying tickets to that show. #3LeftsBaseball #BaseballIQ

@ButchBaseball29 @ButchBaseball29 I stand corrected, we just googled it and it appears CC is a member of the MWC for women’s soccer only. Huh… guess you learn something everyday 🤷🏾

@ButchBaseball29 @ButchBaseball29 , could it be? If so, still bizarre as there is no affiliation between CC and the MWC. We still don’t understand

Colorado College

My Son pointed this out to me today while watching the MWC app, says it’s been there for years…. Whose logo is this? #MWC #MountainWest

@JWonCATCHING Ideas on how this can be subtly communicated between P, C, & 3B?

This pick. Low risk & high reward.

Dear college baseball community, We scratch, claw and beg all season for college baseball to broadcasted on national TV. Tonight, we have it… @WVUBaseball @ @ASU_Baseball duel at 7 CT on ESPN2. Together, let’s crush the TV ratings and force the hands of executives to air more college baseball. You should be watching this one regardless, a top-25 rubber match between two clubs playing fantastic baseball right now. ESPN2. See you there.

BASEBALL COACHES: Pitching Documents I have taken a few documents + my own to create a pitch tracking system. This tracks in game stats: strike %, FPS %, % of each pitch including every count & more. If you have interest RT this & I will reach out on how to access this. Preview⬇️

*BASEBALL COACHES* With the help from our infield coach @b_szink12 I have created a Google Drive with 300+ videos dedicated to infield, outfield and team defense. If you have interest in something like this, hit the RT and I will reach out on how to access it. Preview below:

Transfer portal opens today!! In case you're not familiar with New Mexico yet: - 2025 Mountain West Coach of the Year, Jason Eck - Best record in the conference - Undefeated at home - Largest home attendance increase in FBS We want guys who want to win. #GoLobos!!!

Little anecdote for everyone’s journey home: Minnesota cheer and band are in our hotel…Congratulated a few in the elevator and without prompting they all said “dang, you guys were loud” “loudest game we were at all year” “we wish our fans were that loud”… no bullshit. 🙌 Lobos! @UNMLoboFB left an indelible mark on the football world. Just the next step, we have many more we’re gonna take.

@LMChavez2311 @cervezalobo Come on man, this is a bad take. Let’s be better, We are better than this. #GoLobos

@cervezalobo Lovo is a real POS

“Albuquerque ain’t for everybody. It’s for real ones.” - Jason Eck

@lobogabe is the man! Thanks for those last few minutes. Big win

**CATCHING COACHES AND CATCHERS** If you are a student of the game, I have a great resource for you. Over the last year, I have put together a catching Google Drive. Over 300 videos covering all facets of catching. Hit the RT and I will reach out on how to access it. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

@eequeteesher505 Time?

Game Day: we play Belen in the semi finals of the Sandia Prep Tournament. Go Monarchs! 🦁

Thinking about what Coach Eck said about this could be a football and basketball school. Yesterday's game will be one of those where there was 30k in attendance but in the future 45k will tell the story that they were there. Brings me back to Feb 1, 1998, the Royce Olney game in The Pit. 18k in attendance but more than that talk about that game like they were there! This game is another building block to being a Football and Basketball school!! #GoLobos

@beauhightowerdn @LouisTABQ

Whatever happened to the Red Menace at Lobo Football Games?

This man has been to every lobo football game home & away this year.He’s Not related to any of the players. His dedication to the program is unmatched. It’s time to give him his flowers. @flovom @UNMLoboFB he deserves a sideline pass for all remaining lobo football games.

GET. TO. UNIVERSITY. STADIUM. 🐺🔥 This Friday isn’t just another game…. It’s a chance to change the entire trajectory of Lobo Football. 🏈 THIS GAME IS EVERYTHING!!!! We need every seat filled, every voice screaming, every fan locked in. 🎟️🔊 Black Friday. No excuses. Bring your family, bring your people… be there. Because here’s what’s on the line ⬇️ 📜 LOBO HISTORY IN PLAY: • 6–0 at home — would be the first time since 1934 🏠🔥 • 8–3 overall — first time since 1997 📈 • Beat SDSU and we have a shot at our FIRST EVER Mountain West Championship appearance 🏆 • And a chance at our FIRST conference title since the WAC era 💍🐺 This is nail-biting, heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat football. This is the kind of night people talk about for YEARS. This is the moment where the crowd can decide the game. 🌪️🔴 Let’s make it hell for SDSU. Let’s show the teams leaving the conference EXACTLY who runs the Mountain West. Let’s pack the house and take what’s ours. ❤️🤍🐺🔥 LOBOS. LET’S FINISH THIS. #GoLobos #HowlLine #LoboNation #505Strong #MWC #MWCFootball #NewMexicoLobos #CherryAndSilver #UNM #FearTheHowl #LoboPride #CSGLobos #TheHowlLine #FillTheStands #WeAreNM #SupportThePack #505grit #CherrySilverGrit #Loboup Photos not by me
