Payton Caviar: So proud of what he has overcome in his young career. Epitome of hard work, overcoming adversity and the never quit attitude. I had the honor to coach this young man years ago and always knew he would get where he wanted to be. Keep grinding Payton and best of luck this season and beyond!

If you think your high school grades don’t matter as much as your athletic ability, well think again.
This is the percentage of colleges that can recruit you by your Grade Point Average (GPA):
4.0 GPA - 94%
3.5 GPA - 72%
3.0 GPA - 51%
2.5 GPA - 21%
2.0 GPA - 8%
Your grades will open as many, if not more, doors than anything you do with your athletic skills.
You will be provided with many more options and not be subjected to limitations.
Remember you are STUDENT-ATHLETES….Student comes first for a reason. School is the priority and athletics is just a bonus.

College Baseball is better than ever. Find your opportunity that fits what you want. Each level is filled with many dudes. Make sure you have the Grades to keep all your options open as they open many, many doors. Playing whatever sports you want is secondary.
Remember you are a STUDENT-ATHLETE.
Student comes first for a reason!
D1 = life changing opportunity
D2 = life changing opportunity
D3 = life changing opportunity
JUCO = life changing opportunity
NAIA = life changing opportunity
USCAA = life changing opportunity
NCCAA = life changing opportunity

My inspiration for RBD Athletics...RBD stands for the first initial of my three kids...Russell, Brennah and Dallas!
I was very blessed to have had the honor to coach and simply watch my kids play the sport(s) they love. Time flies and I will always cherish the moments I was able to be on the field with them or simply be in the stands and cheer them on!
I have taken some time off for personal reasons the past couple of years to get refocused and recharged and it's time to get back to what I have a passion for...Training and Developing young student-athletes to assist them get to where they ultimately want to be.

I COULDN'T AGREE MORE WITH THIS!
"Parents...if you are paying a recruiting service, your son isn't good enough. Get good advice. Stop listening to the idiots around every corner that want your money. Find an old school baseball dude to give you good advice." - NEXT LEVEL BASEBALL

College recruitment advice:
Keep *offers* off of social media.
Honestly, nobody cares and it can only be counter-productive for college coaches (remember they’re called coaches, not “recruiters.”)
Text your family and friends if dying to share. “Look at me” can wait for the actual decision.
If making a commitment announcement, do so AFTER you have contacted those colleges that were in close, serious contact for recruitment. It shows character to contact those before an announcement.
