    Okay thanks. I hadn’t seen anything on Twitter since late April when she was giving Skylar kudos for great play. Hope all is well with her.

    I note you have resigned in quotation marks. I have heard, and don't know for sure which is true, that she was "asked" to leave. No idea why.

    Is Beth on the hot seat at LSU? Long history of immediate post-season failure. I don't know any of their softball forums but if you read the main LSU Facebook page the consensus (and about 90% of the comments) is "thanks for your time here but it is past time for a change and replace Beth." Now, I realize this is just my personal fantasy, and there's little reason why she would do it....but wouldn't she make a fantastic pitching coach for us? Anyway, I doubt LSU gets rid of her but the fans are not happy.

    Sounds like some of our posters when they are disgruntled with the coaches.

    Many posters have been begging TW to pull EH in the middle of the game and bring in RT. He finally did today and it worked. What took him so long. Now; if he does it tomorrow and they wear their striped shirts which they haven't lost in I expect VICTORY.

    If he wants to leave then it’s just a clean parting. If we want him to leave it will depend on what the buyout is.

    The commentators today kept talking about our having a chance to host, a distant chance but still worth talking about apparently. Based on what I've read in this forum, I thought that ship had sailed. Should I not have said goodbye to my KSP friends?

    With the next two recruiting classes coming in, I highly doubt the thought of ever leaving soon has crossed his mind. I have heard, from a source I don't know is reliable but the source swears info comes from high up, that Bosch is gone.

    I have been a critic of CTW this year, but any talk of him leaving is ludicrous. He just needs to upgrade his assistants. It will be interesting who he hires to start July 1st.

    Re don't want to host. If we won we would get UCLA or Oklahoma.

    I hope your source is right. See if your source, also, says we're getting Monica Abbott to take his place!! :)

    They said "with a deep run in the SECT". UT swept us 30-17 and have a rested pitching staff for tomorrow's game.

    If we beat Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia to win the tournament title, it might bump us up enough to get a Regional Host. Our RPI is #21 and we'd have to jump over a bunch of teams to do it, though. Always possible. Publisher's Clearinghouse COULD show up at my door with balloons and a giant check, too!

    What are the chances against a rested UT team that scored 30 runs vs the Gators?

    Unfortunately, they won't be coming to us.
