    I agree that we should go with Rylee. And we should groom Gabi for later. I can see Gabi’s potential, she just needs to be tuned up and groomed. If you remember, Katie Madina was groomed at second base as a freshman and then became on one the best shortstops to ever play at UF. She was a principal players on defense on both National Championship teams. Let’s give Gabi some space and let her develop. BTW, the girl loves being a Gator!

    On TV when the camera showed our dugout, it was clear that everyone was more energized, saying things together, moving with dance like moves together. It was awesome to watch the spirit!

    Didn't Jayden Heavener (LSU) beat Red in the Florida state high school championship game last year. Looks as though Red gets a second chance. It’s always better the second time around. Go Gators.

    Both are about equal right now but we have to settle on one. I love Gabi’s energy but the inexperience is definitely showing with the dropped pick offs and hesitation. Which it may be she’s playing tight but we shall see.

    I’m really surprised Falby hasn’t gotten a ticket.

    Obviously, we'll know when we know.
    And obviously, we want to win out.

    But with two series to go with both against ranked opponents, what do you figure is the minimum needed to secure a top-eight ranking?

    Me too! Both girls are great but if I had to pick only one, as close as it would be, I'd go with Falby.

    That is true. Oxley and Bartow won the state championship the year before.

    Right here
    I disagree. Runner leaving early is something that can be avoided. If you don’t want to get the penalty, just don’t leave the bag early.

    Thanks for the video. It was a great day for Korbe.
    Tim always likes to beat 'Bama, but his knowing what was coming for Korbe made him jump higher.

    Only thing I can think of is pro ball is different. I can't think of many slappers. But Kendra can hit away and with her ability to do both and speed, all she needs is an opportunity.

    Looks like half of the stadium at Oklahoma are fans dressed as empty seats. Has SEC reality hit home?
