Tony had a great run in high school with Coach Hofman, who had been voted the National High School Coach of the Decade with over 1,000 wins to his career.
TD went undefeated in high school and got the attention of many college and professional scouts. His other great high school coach, Paul Herfurth had been a minor league coach for the Texas Rangers. He told me that he could easily get Tony drafted but he suggested that it would be a mistake.
He said the Minor Leagues would burn him out and that the best thing Tony could do is get his college education and then get drafted. That is what we decided to do and it worked out incredibly well, thanks Coach! So, we started to receive recruiting letters from some really great schools. Check out this list.
