This week, we’re joined by Lipscomb University Baseball Coach Brian Ryman. We discuss how he got started in his career, what he looks for in recruits, and helping players grow on and off the field.

Ryman’s responsibilities with the baseball program include managing baseball camps, overseeing fundraising, team travel, on-campus recruiting, and summer league placement for the Lipscomb players. Ryman is also baseball’s liaison with Lipscomb athletics compliance. He also works closely with the National Bison Club and the Lipscomb Baseball Alumni, organizing various team events throughout the year, and he helps coordinate the Lipscomb Baseball Alumni & Friends Golf Tournament. A native of Jefferson City, Tenn., Ryman served as a manager and student assistant at the University of Tennessee. During his time with the Vols, the team went to three SEC tournaments, three regionals, and one super regional, and the College World Series in 2005. His late father, Keith, was a scout for the Chicago Cubs and his brother played at Carson- Newman College. He attended Jefferson County High School, Hiwassee College, and The University of Tennessee. Ryman is married to the former Kristin Peck who is the head softball coach at Lipscomb University. The couple resides in Nashville, Tenn. Ryan is also the founder of the Music Classic, one of the top amateur baseball tournaments in the country.
