Time off might be the best thing for them right now.
I'd come back on Sunday afternoon at the earliest and just rep the heck out of defense. Like 200 ground balls for every infielder except for the catcher. Don't won't wear Tanner out plus he is our best defender anyway. Work on fundamental footwork and mechanics stuff.
Let Foxhall handle the pitchers and their bullpens.
Normal BP.
Nothing too crazy or excessive. Maybe a short meeting about how unacceptable the SEC Tournament was and that's not up to our standard and why it happened. And then move on from there.
At this stage, nothing the coaches say or do will make a difference. It's up to the players if they want to play to win or lose. You can't teach heart and guts.
In the present, that?s mostly true but as the coach you have set the future standard of what is not acceptable down through the younger players. I disagree with your last sentence, you absolutely are trying to teach them that they have more heart, more guts, more drive than they think of themselves and how to transfer that to play on the field. Usually the biggest obstacle for player to overcome, to push past their perceived limits, is the person in the mirror. Doesn?t always work depending on the player and how their talent alone got them to this level and you have players that made it to this level because they already found that heart.
No more sugar before bed. Take away their ps5's.
