2 years in a row she has absolutely mangled the pitching staff in a winner's bracket game relegating her team to the losers bracket. That's not acceptable for a "pitching guru".

At least she is proving last year wasn't a fluke.

Conversation needs to include one topic: NIL money for pitching. Name of the game in softball nowadays. You either spend it or you get what we're seeing.

If I win the lottery tonight, I will be buying some pitching.

If I'm buying for softball, I will make sure they are women. I don't believe in men playing women's sports...

You should wait for Prime Day in June and see if Amazon has any deals on pitchers.

NIL had nothing to do with leaving Peters in for the 7th, nor brining in Pannell. Other, more qualified options available. I'd be fine with moving on from Ford. But that won't happen.

I think she needs to shake up her coaching staff. Our bunting, base running and defensive alignments have been very troublesome.

Well here we are at a fork in the road again. Either win and move on or choke and stay home. We'll know by the end of the day,

I hadn't considered the possibility that Az Stste was out NIL dollaring us. It looked to me that Az State was the more serious team and more determined to win. We'll find out if that is the case again today or not.

Are the teams we're losing to in regionals outspending us in NIL?

Arizona State is a solid team. For you to imply otherwise is BS.

You didn't answer the question. Is Arizona State outspending us in NIL?

They might be. I'm not into answering questions that are not known.

But what is known is they are a very solid team and we knew prior to the result they have a great pitcher and this would be a battle. Just last week they beat two teams back to back that are higher seeds than us, both having ace pitchers. In case you cannot figure out who that might be, Tech and Okie State.

Either team could win this one. And they won a very hard fought close one.

Brought back to relevance?!?

From 2002-2022, never missed an NCAA Tournament under Evans.

Made multiple Super Regional and World Series trips….

Hoping we play better today, but no reason to cut down what a Hall of Fame coach accomplished.

Yeah, i didn't understand the move to Pannell yesterday either.

There have been some odd pitching choices and lineup changes the last few weeks that had me wondering if there was something going on injury-wise that wasn't obvious to us, something going on in the locker room she was trying to fix, or if she was just panicking a bit late season.

We'll see, but not a good feeling following last seasons disaster.

Really took advantage of it. Run ruled at home. At least this year it was a power 4 team. Thats progress we like to see.

A solid team is one thing, but for them to whip our asses twice, at home, in a regional is pitiful. That's not even acceptable in a Super.

FYI

The comment you are responding to was made yesterday and was very relevant to the game yesterday.

The point you are making today applies to the game today. So maybe respond to comments made about that game.

seems the more weight trish loses/hotter she gets, the worse her coaching is for it.

I don't know enough about who we could get and what it would cost but we just got completely throttled and run ruled in 5 innings by a Big 12 team. Embarrassing.

Don't get mad at me because folks are starring my post and you're actively getting cooked.

Venting today is justified. Venting yesterday was not as I have now pointed out twice.

Apparently your big brain is not able to comprehend things of this nature.

I'm not giving you a hard time about your venting today. I'm laughing at you responding to a comment that applied to yesterday's game and was relevant to that game. I'm more than happy to discuss the game today with you but I'm trying to help you respond to things you are talking about.

Yep, she just doesn't have it for calling/managing pitchers. Time to hire a pitching coach and you work on recruiting.

Lack of ace pitching was clearly on display during the regional. Lessentine was very good in a backup role to EK in the past but for some reason was totally ineffective in critical situations at the end of this year. Pannell and Sparks didn't pan out. Good efforts from Peters and Munnerlynn. But the lack of offensive and defensive fundamentals was also on evident display, this did not look like a confident team that made key plays at the plate and in the field. But ASU did. If we need any additional evidence, ASU was not afraid to pitch to our slugger Perez, and they totally silenced her. I may have missed a walk but I believe her on base string was broken today;

"Our slugger" means you only have one slugger. I can't believe that. From 3rd -7th we need sluggers. Didn't have that this year.

So you are not counting the Super Regional from two years ago when we were 1 game away from the WCWS?

How are we defining mediocrity? And how much money is "lots of money"?
