Coaches— As I started receiving offers last fall, I made the decision to enjoy the journey and trust His timing. My plan was to wait until the end of this summer before making a commitment so I could focus on my training and junior season. It’s been an amazing journey, and my recruitment remains OPEN. This summer I’ll be competing across the country against some of the best while continuing to learn about programs and build relationships with coaches as I search for the best fit both on and off the field. I am a middle infielder/utility player who takes pride in my work ethic, preparation, and development. My goal is to be one of the hardest workers on any team, compete at a high level, and help a program win. If you feel like I can help your program, I’d love to connect. I plan to make my decision later this summer. Below is my summer schedule, junior year highlights, and a few accomplishments: 🥎 Hernando High School 🥎 Impact Gold 16U Pipkin 🎓 Class of 2027 🏆 1x 7A MHSAA State Champion 🥈 3x 7A MHSAA State Runner-Up 🏆 2x National Champion ⭐️ 3x 7A All-State 🏅 All-District MVP ⭐️ 2x Region 7A First Team ⭐️ 2x Region 7A Second Team ⭐️ 3x DeSoto County All-County ⭐️ 2x MHSAA All-Star #SoftballRecruiting #2027Grad ImpactGold-Pipkin Jazz Jackson-Vesely Nicki Whitten Carie Dever Boaz Alex Webb Hernando Softball Athlete Recruiting Promotion - Softball Keith Stepter II, PT, DPT, CSCS, CMFA-L1 Athlete Vanity Young Athletes Fitness Scout Softball Coast Recruits 🥎 USA Softball Recruiting🥎 MISSHSAA BallGirlSports Line Drive Media Top Preps - Get Seen by College Coaches & Scouts.

Vinod Khosla and Sam Altman on how much equity to give your first 10 employees In the early days of Sun Microsystems, Vinod Khosla recruited some of the best engineers in the world: Andy Bechtolsheim, Bill Joy, and Eric Schmidt. Sam Altman asks Vinod how he convinced these people to join him when Sun was just a small startup. Vinod replies: “I see this as a major problem nowadays. People aren’t allocating equity widely enough. I think among the first three or four founders at Sun, we kept less than half of the common. The total was something like 25-27% for the founders, an equal or slightly larger chunk for everybody else we would hire, and then investors had like 40% after the A round. In retrospect, that was a very good idea.” When his son Neil founded the AI startup Curai Health, Vinod advised him to keep only 15% of the company rather than 45% and try to hire one or two people at 15%. Then he advised him to leave 30% of the pool for non-founders. Vinod explains his reasoning: “Even though they’re coming in later and they didn’t come up with the idea, they will be incredible resources, especially as magnets to attract other people. If you believe a company becomes the people it hires, then your task becomes attracting the best people, and selling depends on magnets.” This what Vinod did with Bill Joy. Vinod gave Bill half his equity even though Bill joined later: “Bill Joy was an incredible magnet. People wanted to work with Bill and Andy. And even if Bill didn’t do a day of work, he was more than worth it because he helped attract Eric Schmidt. I don’t think Eric would have come work for me as a 25 year old.” Sam Altman agrees on Vinod’s philosophy of maximizing the size of the pie rather than your ownership percentage: “I think this is the most important piece of advice we’ve talked about among many important things today. Being super generous with early employee equity and getting founder-quality people in the first 10 employees—I think all the evidence is on the side of doing this, and yet almost no one does. So there’s a huge edge if you’re willing to do it.” Vinod argues it’s the “single-most important thing to do in the first six months of a company.” The best people can start their own companies. If you want them to join your company, you have to be generous with equity. Video source: Y Combinator (2019)

What an evening. What an inaugural Enhanced Games event. Honestly, if I could have scripted it, I could not have imagined a more nail-biting storyline - tension building all night, and then that unbelievable release at the end. I have to admit: I was close to a heart attack. And then I cried tears of joy when Kristian Gkolomeev won the Men’s 50m Freestyle in 20.81s, setting a new world record. He takes home a $1,000,000 bonus, a $250,000 first-place prize - and reclaims the 50m Freestyle world record. Think about what a world record actually means. It means you are better at something than roughly 8 billion other people on this planet. Let that sink in. I know some people expected us to break (many) more world records tonight. But as always in science: baseline matters. Enhancements bring out the best in you - but they are not a magic bullet. Kristian was already one of the best clean swimmers in the world - and then he added the icing on the cake to reach entirely new heights. And needless to say: the air gets thinner at the very top. Especially in the shortest events, breaking a world record has become harder and harder over the decades. And then there is the unquantifiable magic of live sport. It does not matter how good you looked in training camp. It all comes down to that one moment. A few athletes who were world-record contenders had injuries today. Others had stage fright. That is real sport. We have many more years ahead of us to break world records - one by one - and we will. We are just getting started. But world records are not even my favorite part. While breaking world records will always be one of the core themes of the Enhanced Games, what inspires me most is something else: the human drive to become the best version of ourselves. At every stage and time in life. Tonight, 22 personal bests were broken. And in many cases, these were not personal bests from last month or last year, but from many years ago. Again - let that sink in. Take Megan Romano: She set her previous personal best in the 50m freestyle (24.98) on July 16, 2013 - and tonight, nearly 13 years later, she broke it with a 24.55. She had not competed internationally in almost a decade, and at 35 years old she is now better than she was in her early twenties after only a few weeks of enhanced training. Megan defied aging in spectacular fashion and became a role model for all of us on how to age better - or maybe even how not to age at all – with the power and support of medical enhancements. Or take Emily Barclay - an athlete who had previously competed only at NCAA level. Her 50m freestyle time tonight would have been enough to win bronze in Paris. And it earned her $375,000. A true Cinderella story - made possible not by a fairy godmother, but by science. I could go on and on - and I will. Because we want to tell all of these incredible, deeply personal stories. World records are these almost mythical, elusive numbers. But winning the race against ourselves, against aging, against doubt, against the people who told us what is supposedly impossible - that is what truly inspires me. And I know it will inspire many of you too. Because Enhanced is not just a sporting event. It is a movement. A movement to help every human being become the best version of themselves. Let’s go!!!

The Hoosiers are being criminally SLEPT ON, and it’s time to set the record straight with some cold, hard FACTS. Let’s start with the headline: Indiana landed Fernando Mendoza, arguably the BEST quarterback in the transfer portal. This guy threw for 3,004 yards and 16 touchdowns at Cal last year, starting 19 games. Coach Curt Cignetti, who’s turned every QB he’s touched into gold, says Mendoza’s on track to follow the same path as his past stars like Kurtis Rourke (Big Ten’s No. 2 QB in efficiency last year), Todd Centeio (Sun Belt POY), and Jordan McCloud (Sun Belt POY). Mendoza’s got ELITE potential, and with a revamped O-line featuring transfers like Colorado’s Kahlil Benson, Notre Dame’s Pat Coogan, and Ohio State’s Zen Michalski, he’ll have the protection to shine. Then there’s the returning core: FOUR All-Big Ten studs. Cornerback D’Angelo Ponds (9 PBUs), linebacker Aiden Fisher (118 tackles), defensive lineman Mikail Kamara (15 TFLs), and wideout Elijah Sarratt (957 yards, 8 TDs) are back and ready to explode. This isn’t a rebuild—it’s a reload. What's even worse is the hypocrisy in college football. Fans and media are quick to overhype SEC teams like Oklahoma, Florida, and Auburn, despite their coaches—Brent Venables, Billy Napier, and Hugh Freeze—floundering as lame ducks. Oklahoma’s 6-7 last year? Auburn’s 5-7? Florida’s 7-5? Yet they get a pass because of their team's history. Meanwhile, Big Ten coaches like Wisconsin’s Luke Fickell and Michigan State’s Jonathan Smith get deserved criticism for their shaky starts. Why the double standard? Apparently, John Mateer will change Oklahoma, but Fernando Mendoza can't be as good as last year's starter, who played with a torn ACL all year? That's insane. Indiana’s Curt Cignetti just led the Hoosiers to an 11-2 record, a College Football Playoff bid, and a No. 10 AP ranking—their best since 1967—yet people act like it’s a fluke. Wake up! Cignetti’s resume speaks for itself: in 14 years as a head coach, he’s finished outside his conference’s top 3 just TWICE. The man’s a winner, and Indiana’s backing him like never before. A $72M contract over eight years, an $11M staff salary pool (top 5 nationally) that kept away schools like Penn State, Ohio State, and USC, who came calling for their top assistants, and a fan base buzzing with belief after decades of being a basketball school. Indiana is Fast. Physical. Relentless. Smart. Discipline. Poised. That’s the kind of culture Cignetti’s built. Sure, the schedule’s tougher this year—road trips to Iowa, Oregon, and Penn State, plus Illinois at home early—but Indiana’s ready. They’ve addressed last year’s weakness (a 13% sack rate against elite teams like Ohio State, Michigan, and Notre Dame) with those O-line upgrades. Mendoza’s mobility will add a new dimension, unlike Rourke, who played on a torn ACL. And with coordinators Bryant Haines ($2M deal) and Mike Shanahan locked in, this program’s built for the long haul. College football fans need to stop clinging to brand names and start respecting Indiana for what they are: a program on the rise, with a proven coach, a star QB, and a roster ready to compete with anyone. The Hoosiers aren’t a one-hit wonder—they’re here to stay. 🏆 #GoogleMe #Hoosiers #BigTen #CFB
