Connor with a 6th Year?

[HaydenHawk56]

Leistikow: Connor McCaffery's two-sport Iowa journey didn't go as planned. He's stayed positive anyway

There's a famous movie line from Tom Hanks that frames McCaffery's story: "If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great."

Two hip operations will hamper a player's movement considerably

Physically and psychologically

Connor provides a steadying influence to the team when he is on the floor

He is starting to realize that he should not release too many threes in any game

But his leadership aspects certainly help the Lads on the floor

I haven't heard any discussion about this at all, but is the door completely closed on his baseball career? Didn't know if the surgeries ended it, if he made the decision to give it up, or if it's something he's still going to pursue.

4 on 5 on the offensive end of the court is tough.

Chad L.’s article goes into great detail. It is worth a read.

Thanks. It was a good read. I didn't click on it at first because it was from Hawk Central and assumed I wouldn't be able to access it.

I would be ok if Connor came back for a 6th year. He understands his role on the team.

I hadn't heard he was so beat up. I bet they are right about his hips tying into his back pain now. That's no joke. I bet his overall athletic career may be winding down. That doesn't just go away it just becomes a matter of what can you tolerate. Dude is a tough kid he's smartest guy in the room. He'll be successful no matter what he goes on to do no reason to worry about him.

If you use Facebook, you can get quite a few HC articles as you scroll through.

That's good to know. I don't have Facebook, nor do I want any social media. I have been thinking of starting an anonymous account so I can read things like this. Just don't want to get in trouble with smart ass things I would post....because I know I would.

I thought I was the only one left on the planet without a Facebook account.

I have a lot more respect for him after reading CL's article. He's been a great Hawk, even if the #s aren't showing it.

Of course, I have never made a smart ass post on Facebook. Well, maybe…

Only one kid. I’m all for grand kids, but I’m too old for more of my own.

I don’t have one either. I don’t care what the F people are doing or what their kids look like.

Or what they’re having for supper or what beach they’re all standing on?

From a guy who regularly posts the contents of his summer grill outs.

Just kiddin I enjoy those posts. I abandoned Facebook thirteen, fourteen years ago, shortly after I started it. I revived it again last summer. Felt it was time for something different.

I found out last week that I have a second grandchild on the way. Baby better not be late. We leave for Nashville two days after the due date.

As long as they're not political you should be fine. I'm even more of a smart ass over there than I am here.
