    Not to focus on myself, but I am conveying personal experience. In Mechanical Engineering, I made Dean's List 7 out of 12 quarters. I did have a sophomore slump. She may be experiencing the same; but I hope not. I had a conversation with her at First Pitch last year; she is an extremely intelligent woman. I commended her for fulfilling two of her dreams, first to become a career engineer and secondly to play the sport she loves while preparing for it at the University and with the teammates that she loves. I'm with Ariel, no matter the path she chooses.

    Is that one of those things we could have waived to make her immediately eligible? I really don't understand the "sitting out" rules, but I seem to recall that Coach Murphy screwed Skylar Wallace when she came to UF by not waiving her sitting out a year.
