Pretty unreal tweet from my former head coach, Virginia Tech’s Pete Hughes. If it were anybody else I might not believe it, but Coach Hughes is that badass. And that hilarious. He has a talent for making light of nearly every situation and this is case in point. So happy to know that he’s alright. He’s a great coach and a better man. I hope he has a speedy recovery. Knowing Hughes, he’ll be itching to get back to work. He’s Hokietuff.

Note to high school prospects: Keep this in mind when choosing colleges. Coaches have a huge impact on your baseball career. This man is a legend.
