  1. They are seeing the ball better tonight. Some good swings in the 1st inning
  2. I said it was the right call last night and got crucified. It is a complete shit rule and the runner was out by 10 feet, but as soon as it went to review I knew it would be overturned. Thank jeebus that the call did not decide the outcome
  3. according to the handy weather ap on my phone, the weather is supposed to be done in OKC between 6-7. Maybe a delay, but it does not look like a cancellation to me.
  4. Okay, back to the actual game tonight. I do think we see Mac to start, as Mike has that luxury and she earned that right vs. Tennessee. I hope they have her in a private room at the hotel with an endless supply of Mt Dew, sour patch kids and little Debbie snacks, so we see her at her absolute best.
  5. very true...now how many other teams who have never done shit in the history of the sport have a donor willing to throw a million bucks away?
  6. I could make the argument that we are close to having rock solid evidence that a million dollar player in softball is not going to win a title either. LOL
  7. Because average players in a big revenue sport (ie football) would want at least that amount and they would use her pay as leverage to get it. Everyone, including Canady, knows that the 1 million dollars was a one off. She will get paid, I assume by Tech, but I also would be shocked if it is a million dollars again....especially if it doesn't end in a National Championship.
  8. Hunter is going to be a great slow pitch player in a co -ed league some day. She has a very long swing which is why she can't handle anything middle in. Out over the plate, ball go far. Inside or up and in...bat is scared.
  9. I think all the power 4 schools should be okay. Fully funded scholarships are a game changer for the bat and ball sports. Getting a 100% scholarship is better than most have been getting in NIL for the bottom 1/2 of the roster. Back in the day, pitchers and big power bats got all the real money and the other 20 odd players on the roster split 9 or 10 scholarships. My daughter was very fortunate in that she got 80% her freshman year, and then bumped to 100% for her final 3 seasons. Most of these kids are paying for school to play a game.
  10. Next year when all scholarships are fully funded, I would prefer Mike use that money on someone who can actually play they game that they are here for. There will be lots of small, fast kids in the portal that can lay down a bunt or get the occasional start in the field.
  11. I'm all for VH or KC in the lineup. They both have the ability to accidentally run into one and get a HR. VQ is fun to look at, and not much else and I'm not sure how Adaya Wallace is on this team.
  12. If she plays in this series, things have either gone incredibly well for Texas or the wheels have completely fallen off.
  13. CoachWhite's daughter was a pitcher at Stanford under coach Rittman. She apparently led a charge to the AD to report Rittman for being a hardass. (ironic in that her dad was long rumored to be one of the hardest asses in coaching). Coach Rittman was eventually ran out of town and Standford Softball wandered the desert for several years. Rittman is a really good coach, used to assist with National Team, and now at Clemson where I have heard of zero complaints about this treatment of players. I have attached to formal complaints and Rittman's staff rebuttals to the claims. Looks like a bunch of whiny ass kids and over involved parents to me.
  14. The post season has had to have been an emotional rollercoaster for Coach White. 1. He had to coach against Rittman in the Supers. 2. His team had a terrible draw at the WCWS...Facing #5 Florida, #2 Oklahoma and #6 Tennessee for the right to face Nijah Canady at least twice. 3. He has to coach against his old friend Glasco, who's daughter was killed in a car accident after playing for Coach White at Oregon.
  15. Please put some respect on the Wendy's breakfast Baconator.
  16. The HATE coach White because 90% of the posters are OU homers. I go there only for portal news.
  17. It’s on robocoach as well. She is in the portal and apparently her mom had some not so nice things to say about Tim Walton on the way out
  18. Rumor has it that Florida’s Mia Williams will be in the Tech lineup next year
  19. Called obstruction on themselves
  20. Only once….in the original bad news bears when they tried to walk that motet riding, chain smoking kid.
  21. Beth Mowins makes Lowell Galindo sound like Vin Scully.
  22. The rule is bullshit. It’s like holding in football in that it could be called on almost every non force out.
  23. Everyone shit at the same time over the obstruction call?
  24. Because by the letter of the law, it was the correct call. The rule is stupid and needs to be changed.
