who?

Lefty had so much potential. I think the latter person, who was her roommate, got in her head.

 

Cali was injured most of her freshman year at UF. If I remember, she severely cut her hand while trying to slice an avocado. I hated to see her transfer. She had a lot of potential that she never had a chance to display.

 

After the exit interview freshtman year, she came out crying.
Someone asked why?`
She said, 'i didn't hear what I wanted to hear.'
Might be a clue.

 

This is by far the best forum in all of Gatorcountry. High level discussion, always interesting and informative. And most of all, no flames.

Merry Christmas to all!

 

Most people on this forum love this program and want to see it succeed. Thanks Ocala for starting this tread.

 

I don't think we can do something like that. There are contractual issues between the SEC and ESPN. All of the things you are speaking of don't have the same contractual restrictions. If we broadcast a game, it has to be through SEC, SEC+, ESPN or ESPN+. Then we get into our internal inability to do multiple broadcasts that I have explained over and over and softball gets the shaft. Depending on the time of the year, volleyball, gymnastics, both basketball programs and baseball have priority over softball.

 

Your posts on this should be required reading or at least a "sticky" because they explain so much.

 

Merry Christmas Gator Softball Fans!

 

Here is a kinda definition of what a forum can do..

A forum itself does not have direct political or legal power, but it can hold significant influence by bringing together individuals with shared interests, facilitating discussion, and shaping public opinion on certain topics, particularly when the forum consists of influential figures or experts in a field;essentially, its power lies in its ability to aggregate voices and ideas, potentially impacting decision-making processes without having direct authority to enact change.

One of the things I believe we all would like to see happen that will benefit forum members and all Gator and other team fans who cannot attend games is to get all games televised or streamed. We have time before the USF, ASU And Gator tournaments to let our feelings be known. I have contacted USF and Illinois State by email to stir up some interest and had planned to contact ASU and other participants but got sidelined by the holiday.

I, being a newbie and not knowing much about the logistics of getting “THE MESSAGE” across to the proper personnel, suggest the forum members who do, consider setting up a program to let our feeling and suggestions heard. Perhaps something like an email campaign or petition.
Hope you had a Happy Holiday.!

 

It only takes one attitude like that to mess with a whole team. And it was kinda evident that year imo. Alabama had issues with that the last year kilfoyl was there and that group of freshmen that transfered out after that year. Our group last year ha great chemistry and hopefully we see the same this year. It matters.
