In this episode, Walter Beede sits down with Butch Thompson, Head Coach at Auburn University, to talk about competing in the SEC, building men through baseball, and what truly matters in recruiting. Coach Thompson emphasizes development, culture, and character over hype and metrics. He shares insight on what makes the SEC the ultimate proving ground, why strike percentage and confidence matter more than velocity, and how honest, accountable athletes stand out in today's recruiting landscape. With two CWS trips in five years and a long list of MLB pitchers, Thompson proves that development beats gimmicks—and character always wins.
